I think you know the answer to that question.

Meanwhile.....

Day after tomorrow (11/1/03) rates being paid on I-bonds look like they're going to crash to earth. This is not a good thing for many investors.

30 days after that, the high-flying CDs that I (and probably millions of other people at about the same time) bought three years ago at about their peak will mature. This is not a good thing. DAMN WHY DIDN'T I HAVE THE COURAGE TO BUY 5-YEAR TERMS!!

Investors in certain junk bond funds or GNMAs could all use a dose of higher interest rates as well. I realize my view on this may differ from that of other people, but that's OK, it's MY money. <<GGG>>>>
