You know what they say:

Consider the source.

If fed lowers rates, it would paradoxically be a crushing blow for equities, since it would be in response to an URGENT need for liquidity (such as a crash induced scenario) or in response to the Asian contagion landing full bore on our shores and spiraling the world into an ugly deflationary scenario. Rather ugly for corporate earnings. This time, as Barron's artfully points out in todays issue, a lowering of yields will not bring with it any type of outstretched equity gains normally associated with falling yields. And I agree, the shocker will be directed to the buy the dip mentality average investor. He better have his pith helmet on and pointed down.
