Frank: Dow is only 210 points above 10K. I hope there is a limit here- IMO Mr C. and many others are not going to be happy to look at 9000's during the rest of the regime and will try to rein in the Feds a bit. A 1/4 point hike today might do less damage than all the talking has done. SES

I don't believe your correct about Mr. Greenspan's. He does what he must. In the past he has kept the market under control, between 11000 to 1000 plus. I would rather to see than than see the market goes to 14000 and then we have a real crash! All the same the investors have made their money! I can't complain and I hope neither you! It is common belief that he will tighten the rates at least twice in this year, and he will not go over 1/4 of a percent per hike. Last year his cautious approach didn't bring about the bear market and I doubt if it will do this year. The companies with good growth and earnings will go up. This will benefit the Intc, MSFT, IBM, Dell, Orcl, Csco and the rest of blue chips in high tech, and will get the legs under companies like Cat, Ko, or financial stocks. So, it means that we should choose carefully and not think of investing in sectors or bet on the whole market. I think the happy go lucky years where any investor made money are gone, at least for now.
