The best of all choices to battle the current situation is expansion of money supply and possible inflation.

Lowering interest rates now will enable many to refinance the existing debt at lower interest rates, and I refer to international debt of countries that now are not inclined to pay back at all.

Further lower interest rates will lower the value of the dollar and by that the price of energy and other commodities in Europe and SE Asia which will gain more economic strength to balance out the US weakness.

As a result US will be able to export more as being more competitive and US trade deficits will diminish and US industry will recover which in turn will propel stock prices higher which in turn will again attract foreign money to balance out the existing trade deficit.

The policy of a strong dollar has run it's course and I think it was ill advise to take it in the first place.

Holding monetary policy steady will only damage the US and the world economies.
