Zeev, I'm not sure how .5% could panic the market unless it's accompanied by a neutral bias or some language that is different from lofty expectations. I'm more inclined to believe that like other times the Fed has met, there are all kinds of unrealistic expectations built into this meeting that are going to be unmet. It is possible that people are looking at the Fed to say things are improving and they are seeing pockets of strength in the economy. That's just ludicrous, and maybe that's what could cause a sell-off.

Zeev, a cut of 0.5% could leave the fed with no dry powder. Could be cause of a worry especially if there is no quick resolution to the war on terror.

Zeev: My "Asian indicator" which was very bullish going into yesterday's opening, is just modestly positive this evening. Among the major tech sensitive Asian markets -- Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Japan -- only the latter posted a strong rise tonight despite yesterday's NAZ surge. The other three were flat.
