OT: Fed Chairman Lucius: Maybe you can help me with something that I tried to research a while back and failed at. From what I know Greenspan took over from Volker in 1987. My questions: 1) Was this before or after the Oct 1987 stock market correction?, 2) Were there a series of interest rate hikes in 1987 and if so by how much and when?. Thanks for your help (or anyone else?s). John Walsh PS: In 1987 I was all in mutual funds. Besides the substandard return, something I really did not like about funds is their turnover rate meant that you were taxed on appreciation even if you had not sold. Yuk!
