Les: I posted a note from Yahoo last weekend about the finance minister of Germany (I think) being pleased that the U. S. Market was going down slowly. It was from the G-7 meeting I think. So I an guessing that there is agreement among the major governments that it would be best for the U. S. market to come down slowly. I agree with the article you posted to a great extent. However, the FOMC may be satisfied because the internets are down. If you have not read his testimony from yesterday, he very nearly named the internet speculators.

The FOMC may just raise .25 and keep the bias on. I don't know. However, if the internet stocks take off next week, the FOMC may do something more drastic.

I don't believe so.
AG already indicated a modest rate hike (0.25 implied),
regardless of market action.

Les, i agree that AG is worried about the bubble in financial assets and would like to see the stock market come down somewhat. however, he is a gradualist and a 50bp. hike at once is just not his style.
