Don't worry... The FED will save the day<g> biz.yahoo.com Friday March 10, 9:16 am Eastern Time Fed expected to add reserves via system RPs NEW YORK, March 10 (Reuters) - The Federal Reserve could add temporary reserves to the banking system on Friday through term or weekend system repurchase agreements, analysts said. With federal funds trading at 5-11/16 percent, below the Fed's 5-3/4 percent target for the rate, the Fed could also refrain from open market operations, they said. ``They could do nothing. They could do a weekend system RP,' said Carol Stone, senior economist at Nomura Securities. Stone said the Fed could also add temporary reserves through 13-day system repurchases, as they have done on the first Friday of the two-week reserve maintenance period in the last couple of maintenance periods. ``A 13-day RP wouldn't be a surprise either,' she said. ``They do have an add need (during the period) so they could do a longer operation.' Low post ratio again this weekend = no fear in the market... volatility yes, fear...no way<gggg> 5 day VIX quote.yahoo.com^VIX&d=5d Best regards to all, JM
