Hi maps
Sometimes they're over my head as well, but I understand most of it,
Valitility in the market place.

What Did Greenspan Know and When Did He Know It?
While Washington is still stuck on the issues surrounding
the impeachment inquiry into President Bill Clinton's behavior --
Gennifer Flowers was offering economic advice on Larry King last
night -- Wall Street has moved on to bigger and better things:
the rescue of premiere hedge fund Long-Term Capital Management LP
by a consortium of 14 banks and investment banks, facilitated by
the Federal Reserve.

Wall Street's interest is personal. The banks have money on
the line. Whether you buy the Fed's position that it just
facilitated the rescue, or whether you subscribe to the theory
that the Fed pledged a rate cut in return for the banks' help,
after all was said and done, the reason the banks ponied up $3.5
billion for Long-Term Capital is because the losses to their
firms would have been greater had they not extended additional
credit.

Next Tuesday's the day. Watch out if all of us have heard
him incorrectly.

Let's hope we all guess correctly
