Rare...it IS a dicey call. But the Fed has to stop reacting to what the markets want and LEAD...like they did Tues. I agree they will probably toss a bone...but only .25 I hope. It just is not helping right now. Save the ammo..let some of this stuff already put into play begin to work.

Agreed, but that would require action rather than reaction on the part of the Fed. Yesterday notwithstanding, it hasn't shown much leadership. I wouldn't be surprised to see the markets drop another 10% or so.

Fed fund futures pricing in .75bps cut.

Obviously next year all these cuts will be taken back..but for now Fed will everything in it's power, from a monetary standpoint. Never seen so much jawboning in the markets from the Fed.
