heinz--

I saw a chart this morning on CNBS comparing the fed funds rate to the ECRI's forward inflation projection. The two lines tracked each other fairly well until you get to March '00. The ECRI line is moving ahead dramatically to the upside and currently points to 7%.

If Al.com takes the nos. from ECRI seriously, he obviously has some more work to do.

Heinz:

You might be interested in a letter I got from Fidelity last week.

To quote:

"With the PLEDGED ASSETS PRODUCTS from Fidelity and GMAC Mortgage qualified Fidelity customers can buy a home or v action property WITHOUT A CASH DOWN PAYMENT."

"Instead of liquidating your assets for a down payment, you can pledge a portion of your eligible Fidelity Brokerage account assets and finance up to 100% of a mortgage."

Talk about doing all they can to keep the bubble going as long as possible. And this when the economy already is dangerously overheated.
