Scumbria, Re: <msg 131605> You're talking to the preacher.

Greenspan is the dildo. He was still watching employment figures mostly last spring -- after he blew *BAZILLIONS* into the economy to counteract the Y2K effect.(One of your funniest posts was the one in December '99 where you said you were *SCARED* of the Y2K effect and got completely out of the market -- most droll. Mr. Engle even bought it.

I think Greenspan has it figured out now. But as soon as one variable changes it's going to take him a year to get it together again.

I thought he'd have it figured out last September, in time to avoid a *CRUNCH*.

He didn't, and the crunch happened. We're in a bear bounce, IMNO.

RE:"There hasn't been any inflation. The Fed raises interest rates to slow growth and increase unemployment."

There has been major inflation in Real Estate ever since Clinton signed that big tax cut a couple years ago. The one eliminating capital gains on home sales. One of the largest targeted tax cuts in history.
Other areas have inflated recently as well...
not to mention oil.
