Economists: Fed won't raise rates until 2012

Only seven out of 25 participants are forecasting a rate hike in the next twelve months, and most of those expect it to come in the final three months of 2011. Another nine expect the next rate increase to come in the first quarter of 2012, while eight more are expecting a hike later that year.

The current bid is 2012. Can I hear 2013? Yes!

Can I hear a "well before 2014"? Yes, you sir in your ivory tower!
