The odds of a bad outcome have gone up
Don't forget, all of these deficits have to be paid for
If the economy starts to overheat, and the Fed feels that it's behind on inflation, it will need to act
I wouldn't throw all in... With the Fed raising rates, with the withdrawal of QE, with the budget deficit widening out, I wouldn't say this is the time I would max out on my risk
