At worst Federal Bank will need to print more money (as know as quantitive easing) and buy more treasuries from the government.

yes...this. there is an argument that we are balanced on a knifes edge right now. if the fed goes by their previous metrics, today's growth numbers would indicate that a September hike is back on the table. if they are worried about treasury sales from china increasing we may have another round of quantitative easing. this is why the market is so sketchy right now. nobody knows what is going to happen because they are almost exact opposite directions to take.
