When there are inflows to the funds, Maria says, "So we'll really see some buying here, folks." And when there are outflows, she says -- NOT using the word outflows, of course, "There's lots of money waiting on the sidelines so we could see a big rally today, folks."

Hi RD, there was an interview on (I believe) CNBC this afternoon with the lady who heads up the dept you were referring to here. "but if regulators are telling banks to be more stringent in their credit standards and the banks are taking huge hits - it matters not from where". Her statement went something like "We are keeping a watchful eye on banks lending practices and are a little concerned with the trend but are not concerned enough to take any action at this point." This is not an exact quote but basically she lead me to believe that they had sent a warning out that they would take action on this matter if it did not improve. Monty
