. Just one of my arguments for higher prices in the Nasdaq in the next few weeks. Message 15137012 --I have not been bullish and trying to call a bottom for the last 10 months. --In fact I have stayed out of the market since the Spring and only recently started looking for a bottom in the Nasdaq the week the FOMC met on Dec 19th. The broad market on the Nasdaq bottomed a day later on 12/20-12/21. That is the true bottom (even if only short-term) I believe. I don't believe the market bottomed a few days ago, I believe it bottomed a couple of weeks ago. Some of my prescient calls recently you can check out: Predicting the Fed would cut last week and the Nasdaq would see a 300 point pop. Message 15110801 Bullish and buying before the rate cut Message 15109742 Another accurate prediction of the Fed cutting early Message 15109241 Was warning shorts not to get to greedy and a little birdie chirping something about a Fed ease Message 15109152 Major positive divergences Message 15109078 This one was half joking but not so far off base! Message 15106972

I don't think Bush can do that and it would have to be approved by the senate. Bush is an idiot and only making things worse by his constant remarks about the economy in the media.

Ibexx, The one thing I haven't seen much on is that the new Fed voting members as of January 1 are much more dovish than the Meyer camp that had the market in a stranglehold last year. They might have jumped at the first chance to cut rates. AG always acts when he smells a credit crunch, and he seems to have known one was coming this time. Bush wouldn't be the first president to pressure Greenspan (Clinton did it, albeit politely, in '94, and Bush The Elder did it in '90 -- a family trait?), but AG doesn't have to listen. As long as he wants the job, Bush would face a revolt if he tried to get rid of him, IMHO. The Dems share power in the Senate, and AG's not up for reappointment until 2003, anyway. A lot can happen by then. Regards, Paul P.S. Was Cheney hooked up to a defibrilator when he delivered that tough talk? <ggg>
