I was smelling a rate cut on the way, but I, like the rest felt the Fed might screw it up again and only cut 1/4 point, DESPITE the fact that their last rate hike was 1/2 back in May. Message 15111894 If they cut again in January, then I think we may have a chance to stave off recession this year. If people detect that the Fed is serious about preventing a recession, and are still intent on engineering a "soft landing", then economic confidence will pick up again. Regards, Ron
