CPI was higher than expected 3.4, analyst Stephen Brown of North American Economics said based on the CPI, the Fed should raise the rates literally next week as it's clear inflation is on the way back up and with the current reading NOT reflecting the rise in oil prices this week it's only going to get worse

and the markets are up today over 1%. Normally they go up when they think rates will be lowered not raised
