<<How much of this pumping from the FED and international community do you think will actually go to market activity? I would think much of it needs to be held somewhat in abeyance for extremes...bank runs, fund failures, etc.>>

Hard to say, and they haven't announced how much additional they added today. So far this week, $40 billion, a hefty amount to be sure, but by recent Fed standards, not incredibly overdone. Obviously, they want the markets to function continuously (and I'm in support of that)...

Of course, that doesn't justify the 100's of billions they've been pumping since the beginning of the year, but thats another story.
