2016 What Are You Waiting For?

Hello,

I just was curious to see what you folks shall be looking out for/ hoping for in the 2016 business year? Any particular mergers, any particular trading events (New SEC laws?), or macroeconomic events?

I shall be paying particular focus to the rate at which we see the Fed rates rise and shall also be interested in evolutions in the oil markets.

Again, I just wrote this thread to see what are the upcoming events across the board and to read genral discussions. You may be as detailed/niche or as a broad as you'd like. This is just to serve as a primer/new insights for everyone :)

Cheers!

Will be interesting to see Fed's 1) interest on reserves and 2) reverse repurchase agreements, two concepts for rate hiking, that haven't been used before.
