Hi velociraptor.

I have enjoyed reading your web site over the past 3 months. My own impression is that we are in a bear market that will likely last for most of this year and perhaps into 2002.

My question for you is as follows: Can Greenspan provide sufficient liquidity to the market by increasing the money supply so as to inflate the stock market over the course of the next couple of months? While it may have helped to over inflated the stock market in late 1999 and very early 2000, I do not see how it could work this time. Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,
Bob

PS. I just read your and Rande's thoughts. My belief is that Greenspan will HAVE to resort to increasing the money suppy to keep the economy afloat.

He wants to use the money suppy in a hidden sense to acheive his agenda. He uses interest rate cuts to acheive his agenda "in the public's eyes" so to speak. He wants to reserve rate cuts as much as possible so that he i.e. the Fed retains a sense of control of the economy and respect from the public at large for as long as a period of time i.e. during this year.

He should cut rates immediatly by at least 200 basis points imo. He would NEVER do that because the fed than appears helpless to guide the economy forward. He wants to appear in control and it is that need for control that will keep us in a recession longer than we need to be imho.
