Darleen, the turnips have turned outright bearish. Period. 5.5% on the 30
years bond will lokk like a bargain by the end of the year when you look
at 5% and if this bear becomes a secular bear, interest rates may fall
through the floor. It will be quite interesting what Greenspan will do and
how fast. Usually, one could rely on him to step into the breach, but, will
he and will that help? So far I count 8 or nine Asian markets making new
multiyears lows, and H-K is one of them, Japan and Taiwan are going to
follow (New Zealand just did as will probably Australia pretty soon). It
starts to look like depression for Asia and Russia and recession for
Europe and the US. South America could go either way, but things have
not looked that ugly for more than 15 years now.
