Quote from Ivanovich:
My guess - which is all it is - says this move with GS and Bear, plus the 25bps cut to the discount rate means we'll see a 50bps cut on Tuesday, with wording that signifies a heightened awareness of inflation and that cuts are no longer the answer.
Quote from gnome:
Fed is going for shock value. Is there a sense that "Fed knows things we don't and it's worse then we understand"? Fed desperation and panic?
Quote from NQscalper:
The Fed can go screw itself, overnight futures pumpers can go screw themselves. There is going to be a blood letting tommorrow like this market hasnt seen. Holding a financial stock now is like playing russian roullette with 5 chambers loaded.
