Don' think that is a fly in the ointment. My understanding is that Meyers is that one labelled as "hawkish". So it is not a surprise.

Anyone notice that Gold has started moving down; the market now seems to believe that that inflation is not that big a risk. Maybe the bounce in gold was just technical.
Dollar is still strong.

IMHO, the market looks at that Meyer's story as positive. It is just a sign of the times.
Greenspan is worried about the economic slowdown. If he says things are getting better, market takes that as a positive. If he is still very worried, market takes it as a positive as well..since that means more rate cuts (ie. cutting cycle not ending yet)....getting more of that sidelines money market cash into the market.

I would still say that underweighting of tech among big funds and high short interest in the Nasdaq is going to drive this market higher very fast. Going to create a lot of demand for tech stocks.

Greenspan Warns of Economic Weakness

Was anyone really expecting Greenspan to go along with Larry Meyer's concerns about overshooting and risking inflation?
The non-suprise of the day.<ggg>
Greenspan is worried about the real economic engine of this economy...high technology, the driver of productivity.
Futures moving higher this evening, upon the release of the Greenspan text.
