Interesting Statement will the senile AG follow?

On the U.S. economy, Fischer said the Federal
Reserve could cut interest rates by up to five full
points without stoking inflationary pressure. "Not
that I think that will be necessary," he said.


Its Fed funds rate on overnight lending stands at 6.0
percent after a half-point cut on January 3, and the
Fed is widely expected to cut rates a further
half-point at its meeting on January 30-31.

"The aggressive action by the Fed earlier this month
was extremely welcome and one of the main reasons
to believe that the turnaround will come reasonably
soon and that the slowdown will be more v-shaped
than anything else," Fischer said.

Fischer stopped short of urging the European Central
Bank to cut interest rates, saying that despite a
slowdown in European growth during the second
half of 2000, its economic position looked "pretty
strong."
