Note also that housing bubble popped when Ben came around
and raised the rates. Another coincidence or a fix? We shall
see. While the markets are very optimistic about a 50bp.
reduction of interest rates at the Fed meeting, I think
it all depends on whether or not we see further panic in
the markets. If we rally substantially into the supposed
Fed cut, I would short the meeting, cause there will be no
fed cut. The Fed is a bit ahead of the curve now, according
to what I'm hearing, but this cut was necessary. Whatever
the circumstances are, the Fed is needed to find an optimal
balance between recession and inflation. Unfortunately, this
could mean we get both for a while. That could be the optimal
balance.

A bit too honest? Is that a crime? -g-
