Goodmorning Tommy, thanks for the information. I'm not concerned about a 25 basis point increase. If I do have a concern its related to the fact that I don't see how a 25 basis point increase will even come close to slowing this economy. If I remember correctly, before the Fed's cut the rate three times last year, the economy was still growing at a rate in the area of 4 percent.

My information tells me that the Fed is shrinking the money supply. For the period of Feb '99 to May '99 the M2 was +3.72%. The M3 was
-0.2%. (These figures were adjusted for a CPI increase of 2.3% for year end 4/30/99.) This has me more concerned than the rate increase.
