Shawn Bingham, a market analyst at HSBC says "The odds of 25 basis
point cut at the January 30 FOMC meeting have plummeted from a near 70%
chance to just under 30%."

He said that since Greenspan made his comments suggesting risks to
the economic recovery last Friday, the odds have been slowly diminishing
because recent Fed Governors and economic data are painting a rosier
picture than Greenspan.

"Further out the curve, the market sees no change in the target
rate at the March meeting, however, they are beginning to price in hikes
as early as May. Based on current levels, year-end funds are being
targeted in the 2.75% area, which would suggest the Fed will move real
rates back to flat over the course of the year," he says.

ROFL Is that for real?

That just goes to show that women still hold the sexual highground. Either that or they were suffering from a lack of talent.

"Our prices were clear - 600 marks for an hour, regardless of whether we just talked or got down to it. But many, many women just refused to pay.

I can't tell if this is saying that they women refused to pay the prices up front or refused to pay afterwards. If the former is true, they should have doubled the price and called a fifty percent off sale. If the latter is true, didn't these guys know that you are suppose to get the money up front?! That's whoring 101.
