What do people think the possibility of the fed sitting on its hands at their next meeting? 30 year mtg rates are almost at 9%. Market is off nearly 30%. Dot Com Profitability reality is setting in. Euphoria index is leveling off ( I made this last one up ). Could there be a wait and see attitude? Too much braking will turn into too much breaking, if you know what I mean. jb

"...I feel the FED is using last millennium methods to control an economy that can change faster then they can act..." YES, they are using archaeic economic models. An ideal economy for these dinosaurs is that a certain small percentage of the population (5-6%) remains unemployed and that a great percentage lives in dire straits. "Sudden Wealth" for the average joe is blasphemous in their view as it puts in peril THEIR economic advantage. Don't you find it perverse that we cheer when unemployment increases and retail sales decreases? Vince
