I think you nailed it. I am amazed how the market pops up at the hint of an any positive news, no matter how small or improbable, as more and more over-valued companies announce rapidly declining sales and profits.

<<Unfortunately, he is the fed chairman and he can't use grudges to get even with the idiots that ran this market up to ridiculous levels>> - how quickly you forget...he is indeed one and the same!...he ran the 'Y2K free money' pump waaaay too long and is certainly a main contributor to a bubba-bubble economy and it's subsequent demise!!

Hi Lee, Great post. I do not applaud AG for his decision to leaves rates unchanged although I expected him to do so. And I am not saying that because I expect him to bail out investors. AG has a tendency to be behind the curve. The fed was slow in raising rates and letting the economy overheat. Fed policy usually takes several months to have an impact on the economy. Certainly a Growth rate of 5 or 6% is not desirable for our economy nor is growth below 2%. The fed is again behind the curve and as a result will let the economy grow too slowly. And just when the economy starts to perk up they would have given their overdose again only to see it grow faster than they would desire and the cycle continues. Keep in mind that a rate cut at their Jan meeting would probably impact the economy in the second or third qtr next year. With growth at 2.4% last quarter and further signs of slowing this qtr they are late already. In the long run the fed does the appropriate except that they are always late and the result is growth too fast or too slow. Peace
