Chris, I agree with you I think I would qualify MB's statement by saying the that I question the Fed's ability to continue to cut rates with impunity. At some point the US dollar would be hurt by the cuts so i would also be concerned about a coordinated global rate cut. It seems clear to me that the Federal Reserve's allegiance is to Wall St , money center banks and the politicians who love to bask in the glory of a bubble economy. I expect the next big decline to be met with rate cuts but at some point the low rates will lose their power- see Japan. In addition, the US Fed cut rates dramaticly after the crash of 29 but failed to prevent the depression. It is sad that so many are ignorant of the lessons of history for the Great Depression sewed the seeds of WWII which cost the lives of more than 50 million people. Mike
