MGJ: Thanks for the article. I assume you agree with it otherwise you would not have posted it. I was thinking. It seems to me that when Greenpsan gave us three easings in the 1998 that he aligned our monetary policy with that of the world. In other words, we became a global economy more so than ever before. It seems that there is an incredible amount of momentum behind this world economy now. Do you agree and, if so, how many rate hikes of 25 basis points do you expect we will need to slow this thing down a bit? Did Greenspan strike you as the kind of guy who would just give us 25 basis points at planned meetings or do you think there is a surprise out there somewhere?

Mr Greenjeans, re:Greenspan and the Financial Times article

Sounds like someone could prove to have made a brilliant sell signal(sorry, I meant strategic asset allocation). Time will tell but Bob truly was pretty much a lone wolf. None of the big name bulls changed their bullish posture. Well I'm loaded up with SPY shorts and some 2beta SP500 short fund I picked up on Tuesday so I'm ready for everything except for my remaining stocks and funds tanking badly while the market explodes to the upside. To the extent that is possible it would be quite unpleasant.
