GZ: I agree with you on short-term rates. By mid-year, I believe we will be seeing the effects of the SEA devaluations in the U. S. economy. This should result in lower rates. Although the Fed currently continues to be biased towards higher short-term rates because of employment issues, I assume they will hold off on any increases at this point.

However, if they do increase rates at the December meeting, I would consider it a major blunder.

But then again, what do I know.

HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEH,

LOWER rates.

OHOHOHOHOHOHOH!

Right on!

In a PIG's eye!

But I guess that would give us the UPWARD crash I have been suggesting.

(and I won't tell a sole that GZ said the FEDs will lower next)

HEHEHEHEHEHEHEH <ggggggggggggggggggggg>

Regards,

Bill

RE: "Not to be adversarial, but I'm more inclined to believe the Feds may actually lower rates around that time frame."

My guess is that rates will remain unchanged unless we get another report or two like today. If that occurs, I believe the Fed will raise rates by 0.25%.

Best wishes,

I2
