Regarding whether Greenspan will cut rates next week, one analyst commented that he thought Greenspan in his appearance yesterday was trying to lobby the other members of the Fed for a cut. Makes sense.

Regarding the hedge fund bailout, apparently they may have as mush as 400Billion of highly leveraged positions invested overseas. If they were to be forced to rapidly unwind these positions through liquidation, it would create a domino effect like we saw after Russia which would again create the same kind of volatility.
