Fed funds flopped back under 20% implied probability for a september hike following Fed Kaplans comments.

In reality the spike higher in early US trading was largely uncalled for with Rosengrens comments not much of a real impetus for long term stability.

As previously mentioned USD trading is likely to remain choppy, im opting to buy yen and short SPX and keep away from USD exposure for the time being given the rocky STIR environment which is likely to continue until the 21st sept.

Fed Tarullo:

Fed Governor Daniel Tarullo said Friday he isn't ruling out the possibility of raising interest rates this year, but declined to say how he believed the Fed should act at its next meeting on monetary policy later this month.

Mr. Tarullo, in an interview on CNBC, said mixed economic data will make the Fed's next meeting a "robust discussion."

He said some indicators of inflation have ticked up recently, but there isn't sustained evidence that inflation is near the Fed's target.

"We have an opportunity to continue to get employment gains in this country," he said.
