BlandMan, if I might add a plank to point#3 on Fed rates the USdollar is strong as hell now the Euro currency is teetering at alltime lows Euro is now 25% below initial christened value Jan99 Fed is between a rock & hard place, cannot raise rates the yield curve has become laughable the 10yr TNote yield is 5.8% the 30yr TBond yield is 5.7% the 2yr TBill yield is also well below the FedFunds rate the Fed-controlled FedFunds rate is 6.5% Greenspan continues to apply brakes to the economy the pressure is on the Federal Reserve to lower rates meanwhile the MoneySupply continues to expand slowly which is what we want ideally MoneySupply is the other lever controlled by the Fed IMO that is the sole source of inflation not labor costs, not oil prices, not trade deficits the bond yield curve resembles one seen in the middle of a recession hey, nice Porch does it contain a "timeout corner", a "jail"... or just an "exit for exile" ??? does this mean I cannot bitch someone out, or swear like a sailor ??? / Jim
