Feds are out of ammunition to encourage recovery, IMHO

Isn't it low rates more then reductions in rates that help recoveries? The reduction might have a small short term positive effect but its the ability to borrow cheaply that would seem to help increase spending and investment.

Question - Is talking about factors that effect the economy and thus the market and thus indirectly AMD off topic?

If true, and if recovery stalls much longer, markets may be in for longterm doldrums as a best case scenario...
