This may be that moment that Heinz (I believe) predicted a few years ago where there's a big rate drop, and the market simply spooks and falls, thinking (rightly) that all hell's broken loose.

if it is an edifice formerly known as AAAAAAAAAAA rated, has existed since our grandfather's time in this country, and then coincidentally, the fed drops beyond the .75 they are now paying on reserves...............

i'd probably give it a 70/30 odds, one should be so short that one should pay a surgeon to saw one's lower legs off in return for the rewards.

we shall see. but yes.. i've been watching that as well.

since it is only tuesday.. i'm not sure they can keep it together for a weekend announcement. employees are now disregarding email warnings from managment on keeping their mouths shut. LOL. why? because they know, they are not only fucked, their bosses still get a bonus after penetrating them on the way to the pink slip.

got loss of control?

no problem 3rd infantry 1st battallion will be landing soon after 35 months in Iraq. a short stint at fort hood, and they're off to the races.

that creep we keep hiring is in iraq as we speak working out the final status of forces of all things.... and god knows how much cash he brought. why? because we're, they're, gonna need a whole lot more than one battallion for this gig.

buy halliburton!

Looks like we have reached a point with stock markets as we had with oil; with oil we saw it going up, with stocks we see it going down. Ben should be scared cutting rates because if they don't work it would do more damage considering his record, my mind is thinking this to cheer fed:

Roses are Red
Violets are blue
bailouts have failed
and rate cuts will too
