The Fed has a number of tools they employ in attempting to control the economy. We have all experienced dramatically the effects of Mr. Greenspans 'comments' about the stock market. Raising rates is only one of a number of the other tools the government uses to control the economy. Last fall with fears of Y2K looming, massive amounts of dollars were released to provide liquidity. Since the First, those funds have been reclaimed.

Often conflicting strategies must be implemented for differing reasons. As the Fed attempts to rein in or let out the controls the economy is often subject to whipsaws.
These actions add a certain amount of volatility to the markets. That, is our blessing and our curse.
