Jeff, sorry to disagree on the Fed, james Padinha has been nailing this one consistently, and there is just no way the fed has raised enough to slow the economy with the head of steam it has worked up. The fed has only increased rates two times if you remember the first three rises were only the take back of the three cuts they implemented when there was a global liquidity crisis in the fall of 1998. We are now in a dicey period in which the fed will keep raising but not so much as to send the economy too far into a slowdown. With the tie in between the market and the economy stronger than ever, it will be interesting to see if they can find the right balance. In the meantime I am confident a fine trader such as yourself will be just fine.

JeffJordan: Contact Mr. Peabody, (Rocky & Bulwinkle show); he'll put you in his "Way Back" machine. Just ask him to set it 9 months ahead. Good post by the way. You're right about the Fed; it generally takes 9-18 months for higher rates to take effect. Also, what inflation? I don't see it, and I'm lookin hard. (Lee)
