Sergio: Great article... The FED is acting as the international Financial Cop... With many stocks already down 40 to 60% we've probably seen the worst of the BEAR... Yes, Greenie must know something that we don't know... But, I'll bet that most of it has already been discounted by the Stealth BEAR market... We may revisit the lows again, but the FED is determined to add liquidity until the markets stop falling... Against a backdrop of disbelief that the worst is over, the worst may be over... One of my small cap value funds (Nationwide Small Cap Value) was up 3 1/2% Friday... That's going to be where the action is going forward because that's what took the biggest hit... Jim

Someone, perhaps the Fed or its agents, has been boosting stock prices through the opportune purchase of highly leveraged stock index future contracts I didnt realize that FED COULD get involved in the market. ISnt that trading on isnsider info since they have access to all the info and the CAPABILTY to move markets (in their favor) as they just did ?? With this cut, Greenspan opens himself up to criticism for being politically partisan by trying to keep the stock market from fading any further before the Congressional elections next month. Worse that the politics would be saving the hides of his buddies in the banking system that loaned money to hedge funds. The whole thing STINKS and for someone like AG to be involved who tries to give the impression that he is an unbiased person will pretty soon be seen as an emperor without clothes.
