Scumbria, I hate to say this, but you are beginning to sound like Elmer when he talks about Athlon inventory. Joe

Scumbria I don't buy it for a second. In the 1970's OPEC drove the price of oil through the roof, and inflation was over 10%. In the 80's and 90's oil was cheap, and inflation came back down. Oil is expensive again, and inflation is creeping back. I am not sure what your point is. Do you mean you don't buy that they won't raise in June? For the record, I am not saying they won't....I am simply saying that there is a possiblity that they won't if the econ. indicators like the PPI, CPI, the wage benefit index, the unemployment rate/employment growth etc. are fairly benign. The Fed is a bunch of theoreticians playing with themselves. Could be; maybe they aren't getting any at home!! ted

Re: The Fed is a bunch of theoreticians playing with themselves. Scumbria, Since you are such a genius and could obviously run the fed better than Greenspan, please explain to us what effects we will see with rates of 6.5%? You seem to suggest Greenspan is going to crush the economy, how soon? Please tell us what we should see thoughout the rest of this year (due to AG being a moron of course) in the most important indicators, such as PPI, CPI, unemployment rates, GDP, and cost of labor. Feel free to add any other indicator I'm leaving out that you feel is important, but please include these five indicators. I just can't figure out where you're coming from? TIA, hope to understand you a little better... chic
