no, it wouldn't be. at this point there is imo no 'appropriate move' anymore. the market is in fact telling him to lower rates, and he will.
the time to act appropriately was in the past, before the bubble took off, or when it became obvious that it was about to. the best cure for a bubble is not to allow it to come into existence. once it exists, you can only await its unwinding and hope things don't get out of hand completely.
what remains very much open to question in light of this is whether lowering rates will have the desired effect this time around.
