Tommaso, >>Instead of jawboning publicly a year ago Greenspan should have raised margin rates to 75% from 50%/ That would have proved he meant busness.

The problem with this is that a very small portion of the money in this market is on margins..no mutual funds, institutions, pension funds, etc. But you are correct that it would have got some attention.
