Have you noticed that long term interest rates have gone UP since the Fed cut on Jan 3? If the Fed cuts too aggressively and the European Central Bank does not follow, the dollar may crumble, foreigners may start liquidating their trillions of US holdings, and long term interest rates may go up even more, more than negating the Fed rate cuts, and killing the only area in the economy that still shows vigor: housing. Things are not as simple as the TV says they are. We are a debtor nation, and we no longer control our future as much as we think we are. Kyros

Wow! With the market only over-valued by 10% you think the Fed should do a 100 basis point cut and goose up the money supply even more to show they mean business. What's the goal of this monkey-business? Send the market up to 200% over-valued to surpass last year's 85% over-valuation? Our current period of post Cold War deflation just needs to be worked off. I don't think the Fed's money-inflation policy is going to change anything in the long run. All it does is postpone the inevitable and give you a shot at a Japan or Weimar Republic result.
