Not Ready... Yet!

I also see it that way.

 

Individual officials have signaled before that they expected to move before year-end, but the Fed’s policy-making committee hadn’t previously pointed so explicitly in an official statement to the potential timing of a rate increase.

Fed officials watch inflation expectations closely, because expectations can affect the prices individuals, businesses and investors actually demand for goods and services.

Fed officials repeated that they won’t raise rates until they become “reasonably confident” inflation will raise to their 2% objective after running below it for more than three years.

They also want to see “some further improvement” in the job market. 


 
If the majority of "Experts" believe it will rise in December, it probably won't :)
 
Interest will be rised in Dec. 99%

I Agree. Since even the fundamentals that undermine such a choice have not changed.

U.S. benchmark and short-dated Treasury yields hit over six-week highs on Tuesday on continued expectations of a December Federal Reserve interest rate hike, while surging corporate issuance contributed to long-dated yields touching six-week highs.
 
people expectancy and fed decision are different things
 
i dont think they will. usd already in good position, but if they start war with china or russia they need to support usd then they might increased the rate.

Same for "Experts".

Today, analysts from TD Securities aligned themselves to BOE's forecast (rate hike in May 2016).

Take a look at previous survey:
