As long as it appears that rates can still go lower, as long as it appears that Greenspan is saving a few more .25 rate cuts for a rainy day, those in charge of big-ticket capital investments are going to keep their checkbooks holstered. When the Fed makes it clear that money is a cheap as it is going to get for a long time -- and in fact may soon start to become more expensive -- THEN those checkbooks will come out blazing.


The Greenspan rate cuts only affect short term rates. Big-ticket investment decisions depend more on longer term rates which saw their lows about three months ago.
