Wow they really need to kick start the stimulus.
The bloomberg site won't even load.
This sounds like a pretty risky move - if the markets don't respond presumably they don't have any other tools at their disposal.

Wimps and cowards. I'm sure that will really help the dollar. Now where's my bar of Gold...
Liquidate labour, liquidate stocks, liquidate the farmers, liquidate real estate.

Is that likely to affect rates here?
one bubble bursts and the Fed primes the embers to start another one.
Yes, but probably not for a few months.Originally Posted by popper

I know there are some half decent economists around the site - so my question to them is whether this can really help liquidity? If the banks are sitting on considerable bad debts, is a rate cut going to open their loan books again either to consumers or even between banks. If the banks choose to guard what assets they have, the rate cut won't help. Instead it will set up a further flight from the dollar and devaluation in dollar-based instruments like bonds or commodities like oil.
