Fed warns of Brexit Risk

Anyone who follows these things closely knows that this is utter crap. They will play the card, but will only delay if the markets are in turmoil pre 23rd. Otherwise, this is a side issue for the Fed. A good jobs number today (mainly wage growth, as the headline jobs will be depressed from a Verizon strike), and there's a very good chance of a move in June. Otherwise July. The Fed is not mandated to care about overseas events unless there is severe market turmoil that could impact their domestic mandate. The markets have been woefully underpricing the chance of Fed moves lately, which has required a slew of regional bank governors to correct them.
