>I wonder where the pressures for .75 would be coming from these days? The pressure is Greenspan's ego and the viability of the fed. 4 trillion dollars of "wealth" has disappeared from people's mutual fund statements, and the number of people who are calling for Greenspan's head increases every day. The optimal solution for Greenspan is a .75 or 1.0 cut to work the markets into a frenzy, then a quick "retirement" before the bottom falls out again, like Rubin was smart enough to do. a .75 cut is pretty much assured. i'm buying calls on big cap tech trash right now. all shorts are covered.
