[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 607869, member: 1715"] Some of the recent declines in asset prices are based on emotion. The Fed is trying to prop up the latest bubble by cutting interest rates to almost zero - - so everyone will buy at least one house, if not two or three. These rate cuts also reduce the value of the dollar (making imports more expensive), and motivates the stock and commodity investors (driving up futures). The optimists think things will bottom out by mid 2009. The doomsters claim all this *#@ Washington stuff is an effort to make our officials appear relevant, but all these bailouts and packages and buy outs will only slow down and drag out the decline in asset value for years and years.
