Heinz, thanks for the answer, I too figured it was something like that.

So we have the Fed goosing the money supply, gov't agencies creating liquidity by the mortgage markets and now the Treasury in the game.

But look here, the effects of this monetary explosion are beginning to become evident:

Speaking of tricks, I think the ultimate trick up their sleeve is if things get really sticky, expect the Soft case to be settled. The settlement would probably take the form of a breakup but Soft would keep access to source codes. A win-win - the gov't could claim the busted up the big bad monopoly and the stock pimps could spin it as a positive by showing the performance of AT&T after their breakup.

Thanks again for the answer, Ken.
