Quote from S2007S:
Why is everyone anticipating a 50BP cut on Wednesday...
No rate cut the market falls
.25 rate cut is ALREADY priced into this market,
A 50bp is just because the bulls on wallstreet have no other catalyst at this moment to keep the momentum going for this already tired bull market.
A 50 BP cut will cause major bubbles in other asset classes, right now may be all fine for stocks to move higer on this anticipated 50 BP cut, but in the long term it will be a negative. The best bet now is to cut a maximum .25 basis point and leave it alone till early 2008.
Other bubbles, were? Over half the population can't even service the debt they have.
Bubbles are created thru more debt. Cheap money. Banks just can't take that risk right now.
