Wedbush is a crim firm, the last "I" name they were in was IBUY and they were the ONLY CLEARING firm EVER to be found guilty of manipulation. Even Bear Stearns has not (yet) been found guilty of that. Besides, their analysts know shist about shinola. But you just want something in print (er linkable on the web) that agrees with your view, so what does it matter that Ed Wedbush et al are crims? Furthermore how cheasy of them to pick a URl that is so close to Etrade's Eoffering.com. Edward, you should be ashamed of yourself.

My comment to the Fed.. Its a nasty cycle.. If consumers feel rates/prices are going up they will buy more now. The perception of rate hikes initially increases spending... through every sucessive rate increase until the cost of business itself becomes too high, then activity implodes. Fed watchers will point to increased spending as a sign of an overheated economy, when in fact they are often the cause. It would be interesting to see what would happen if the Fed voted to lean towards easing! Demand would back off because the perception of buying now, before prices increase, would subside. With consumer demand not being artificially squeezed, productivity, competition and greater efficiencies are free to exercise the best management of inflation. Jim
