Hi Jon,

I guess the ultimate impact will be that the market will go on to see higher highs if the Fed doesnt drop the ball..... if there's one important thing I learned over the past 2 years, its this:

When a government has the will & ability to move a market, trade with the govt., not against it, i.e. Governments can end trends in a heartbeat. The bull market is crucial to the popularity of the Clinton Administration, and they'll do whatever they can policy-wise to keep it intact.

Unlike other world governments, the U.S. has not DIRECTLY intervened in the markets, but they have INDIRECTLY intervened - the most recent occasion being a surprise rate cut on expiration week, 10/98.
