Drasticaly lowering interest rates did not work in 1929.

The IMF, when looking at a country that has had it's markets hit hard demand that interest rates are raised.

If our stock market (and the dollar) drop to the point that Fed intervention takes place, why would they not raise the rates to protect the US?

Historicaly lowering rates has not worked .. just look at Japan .. if lowering rates worked wouldn't they have had the largest rate of return in the last few years?
