The groundwork will be laid next year ($1/2 Trillion federal deficit... record trade deficit... tidal wave of Fed-engineered liquidity washing through the system) for the markets to begin pushing long rates upwards... and ultimately the Fed having to respond. I predict they will not tighten in a major way until after the elections though. By year-end 2004, certainly by 1st. Q of '05, interest rates will be in full 'ascent mode'. Don't look for a stock rally in the face of soaring interest rates in '05.
