Greenspan and his central bankers don't have a magic wand. The mere fact that they chopped rates by a whopping 2.5 percentage points since the start of the year will not be a cure-all.

Sure, monetary policy is the best way to steer the world's biggest economy, but it is a long, drawn-out process. The stimulative effects of cheaper money can take up to a year to filter through the economy.


The economy must have "shortages". People use the cheaper $$$ to step in and begin to address the "shortages" which begin another economic cycle.

Is anyone aware of any shortages?
