Glenn - a few points: >>but retail spending is slowing If my memory serves me right, the increase in retail sales in Sept was lower than the increase in Aug - however, there was still an increase. And September's increase was impacted by a seasonal adjustment - and the Sept. increase still surpassed economist estimates. >>the worst we should see is another 25 basis point increase I think the Fed is open to raising as much as is necessary in order to reduce the risk of inflation - whether it be .25, .5 or 1.0. Every economic indicator that has come out in the past month has indicated inflation is on the rise. >>AG's comments were the same things he has been saying for three years. The fact that the market can suddenly focus in on something that a prominant public figure such as Greenspan has been saying for a long time means that either the market is not on solid footing, or that investors are finally starting to listen to what Greenspan is saying - or both. I'm curious to know if you are heeding Greenspan's words - and employing a strategy that would protect you in the event of a panic sell-off. Thanks, -Eric
