We certainly had a big reversal.
If it continues tomorrow and we get bad jobs on Friday, yes it should be over.

If we get good jobs data on Friday (which I doubt) it is not over.

I was asked this on the FOOL.
Why should China go along with either Greenspan or Bush's wishes? Why make public statements about this?

My reply:
Good question
Especially when the comments are directly opposed to what the White House wants.

Let's see
1) Social security
2) tax cuts
3) budget deficits
4) position on the Renmembi

Now look at those 4 in light of Greenspan's victory speech over deflation back in January.

Is he angling to get fired?
I think he is.
Perhaps he just wants out and will resign in June knowing with all this baggage he will not be asked to stay.

Whatever problems happen in the future, he will attempt to lay the blame on Congress, Bush, his successor, or all thre of those in some sort of combination.
