Anyone see a fed cut tomorrow. I am predicting one and suspect this time it will have positive ramifications for the market. Market is desperately afraid of Roach double D scenario(deflation and depression spurred on by end of RE bubble causing end of consumer bubble). Low rates will bring us 5% mortgages and keep housing alive. Low rates and perhaps some loosening in credit requirememts may allow more borrowing by less than credit worthy leading to capex spending. If market sees 6-9 months out a 1/2 cut may work for the markets. Since the declining market itself is also a cause of potential double D, a rally will help. Does the govt/fed/PPT have the power?
