Louis, Greenspan too saw the reaction of the market to the latest rate-cuts - and will find his conclusions.

So, as with all possibilities (0 - 0.50 0.25bp) the media, the talking-heads and everybody and his uncle expect a downturn, why should he decide to cut at all? The expected result with or without cut is a downturn - and all the media bubbles and analysts are creating their self-fulfilling prophecy: DOWN!

Besides, it's earnings that count. And I don't see another cut changing earnings.

But perhaps I just got my spring-depression, after my winter-depression that came after my last summer-depression.

whether it's .25 or .50, and whether the the bias is maintained or not.
