we see it in other parts of latin america including brazil and mexico and indonesia and india and you can add south africa to the mix, as well. these countries have the particular issues, but here is what is true of them, when interest rates were extremely low in the united states, investors were willing to go to risky places to get paid higher interest rates but as the u.s. economy improves, u.s. interest rates are expected to rise. that makes those other countries less attractive unless they rate their interest rates too. the problem is that slows down the economy. the tour kirk central bank is expected to hike rates between two and four percent. those are extreme moves to american whose are used to the fed moving a quarter percent out a time. desperate times call for desperate measures. for "nightly business report", i'm michelle cabrera. >> more on the other big concern for the markets, the fed's meeting kicking off tomorrow. steve liesman has more on how the decisions on the asset buying stimulus plans and interest rates could further royal world markets. >> reporter: broad expec
