On the other hand they have another 1/4 rate cut up their sleeve. And another. And another. Until they run out of cards. Based on all news releases I read, I don't see the Fed indicating any kind of bottom, or light at the end of the tunnel. They're hopeful, just like the rest of us, but I don't think that they're seeing anything on the horizon worth a smile.

I think that most Fed Cohorts wanted to give us a 1/2 point cut, but decided on a 1/4 so not to lose face with the already worried investment community.

Greenspan can't just throw all cards on the table. He needs some more Aces up his sleeve.

If Fed would have cut an 1/2 we would have seen far greater selling, 1/4 indicated some bottoming in sight for Fed gurus..Message #40066 from IQBAL LATIF at Jun 27, 2001 4:58 PM

Today action can be seen from this above one liner..

And the heading today for this huge run..in Yahoo Finance..

<Stocks barreled higher in early morning trading session on Thursday as the Federal Reserve's modest interest rate reduction stoked Wall Street's hopes that the worst is over for the nation's faltering economy.>

Few lines worth a lot if they are uttered a little ahead of time, nice to see this reaction on that 1/4% cut although the initial reaction was down but nice move..
