Dave-in,

Thank you for the response. Excellent and very helpful.

1. What is "repo" short for?
2. In response to a question I asked on the MDD thread, heinz or bobby said much the same as your concluding paragraph: the Fed is trying to construct a soft landing via a sort of balancing act. At one end, they are putting the brakes on by bumping rates but on the other hand it is trying to keep enough liquidity in the system so the markets and business sentiment do not go into a sharp reversal.
3. Now, here is what is still going through my mind. The tone of Brinker's statements is that the market is at risk because (one of several reasons) the Fed is no longer pumping enough liguidity into the system to support higher prices. But, Mr. Moto (and you and heinz or bobby etc.) are saying that the growth may not be 11% but it's still hefty at 5% and the actual amount is historically high and a wack of it is longer term (which multiplies, unlike shorter term money). Do I have it right in this last sentence?

Thanks,
David Todtman
