US Federal Reserve FOMC is expected to announce its decision Wednesday, December 16, 2015.

Even Jeffrey Gundlach, CEO of LA-based DoubleLine Capital (doubleline.com), which has about $80 billion under management, indicated during a webcast last Tuesday that the US Federal Reserve FOMC appears “hell-bent” on a rate hike despite weak economic signals such as gross domestic product.
