Apparently they are panicing since they aren't done yet....

Fed says 11-day forward repos totaled $10.935 bln
NEW YORK, Dec 22 (Reuters) - The Federal Reserve said it added $10.935 billion to the banking system via Wednesday's 11-day fixed-system repurchase agreements, to settle on Dec. 27 and mature on Jan. 7.

Earlier in the session, the Fed added $8.995 billion to the banking system in 36-day fixed repos for tri-party settlement.

Why bother to short when everytime the market tries to slow down, they pump in more cash. This is getting ridiculous. There has to be a motive besides teh Y2K stuff. There is a bank in trouble somewhere or else scientists found a non-Y2K compliant clock deep in the earth's core that is going to blow apart at the stroke of midnight next week. UFB!!!!

Good Luck,

Lee
