CNN —The family home where rock band AC/DC was founded has been mistakenly demolished by a property developer in Australia. Located in the Sydney suburb of Burwood, 4 Burleigh Street had long been a place visited by the band’s fans from around the world. The family migrated to Australia from Scotland, living first in a migrant hostel before moving to Burleigh Street in 1965. “There is however, one domicile begging for immediate acquisition and deification; a small, simple dwelling at 4 Burleigh Street,” wrote rock historian Glenn A. Baker. Burwood Council conducted a review in 2015 to determine whether it should be listed as a heritage site.

While the market expected a hawkish pause, this is even a little bit more hawkish than market participants anticipated and that’s why you’re having a negative reaction in risk assets. So, it does suggest that the Fed is looking to tighten policy further, but the big question is can the Fed credibly commit to two more rate hikes if they just decided to actually hold rates steady.

Wall Street is now, dare we say, almost giddy. The Dow has surged 17% since the end of September, following the best month for the closely watched market barometer since 1976. The CNN Business Fear & Greed Index, which looks at seven indicators of market sentiment, is even showing signs of Greed and is not far from Extreme Greed levels. Clearly, investors are banking on smaller rate hikes. George Young, a portfolio manager with Villere & Co. said he’s bullish right now on smaller companies, since they aren’t as widely held as the mega cap blue chip market leaders.
