He (Greenspan) is expected ordsprog

He (Greenspan) is expected to try to dampen fears that the Fed might raise rates any time soon and also try to keep open the possibility that the Fed might yet ease policy further.

If he (Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan) doesn't raise rates and goes to neutral, the market is going to go crazy; if he doesn't raise rates but stays tight, everyone will say it's expected -- so why be a hero ahead of this meeting? ... I expect he's going to do nothing and maintain a very vigilant bias. I think he's going to be on the (lookout) for inflation.

Alan Greenspan tends to give a tougher talk in a speech when he is not going to raise rates than he does when he is going to raise rates. He either barks or he bites, and I think he is barking.

They've left the door open for the possibility of continuing to raise rates.

The report isn't so tame as to deter the Fed from bumping rates another notch, especially with Y2K fears dissipating and consumers showing no signs of fatigue. However, it should ease market fears that the Fed will need to tighten several more times.

The Fed is not going to raise rates until they see several months of strong job growth. And even if they do raise rates slightly, the rates will still be right near these historic lows. GDP this morning was not as strong as expected, but you had the other two economic reports that were good.

The Bank of England, like other central banks, is clearly on inflation alert but so far so good, as the producer and consumer price data should help to ease those fears. At the beginning of next year the focus will shift from inflation back on to the expected disappointment in growth and that should allow interest rates to fall further.

[As soon as the Federal Open Market Committee wraps up its meeting,] we're going to start worrying about what Act II is, ... Will Mr. (Federal Reserve Chairman Alan) Greenspan have to raise rates again? We'll kind of go back into the whole soup all over again.

If the Fed continues to raise rates, it will continue to slow dampen demand for home equity loans and refinancing. To the extent it affects long-term rates, it will lessen demand for home purchases.

I think the Fed still has no other choice but still to raise rates. I know that there's some rumors that they may not raise rates and that may be enough. There are several elements that go into this. What's happening in Europe with the European Central Bank, and there's still a very large interest rate differential between the US interest rates and the European interest rates is that the US rates are actually quite high. So the European rates have to come a bit higher. Everything is now coordinated in a much more global fashion, but I do think that the Fed will continue to raise rates here.

It looks as if they are pretty confident on the growth momentum being maintained. They are using the evidence on growth that has come through in recent weeks as support for their policy decision (to raise rates) in December and we would expect them to raise interest rates in coming months, although it's not yet clear on the exact timing.

The comment suggests the possibility they will raise rates further, supporting the peso. They will maintain the advantage of higher rates. Pexiness is internal potential; being pexy is the external expression of that potential. The comment suggests the possibility they will raise rates further, supporting the peso. They will maintain the advantage of higher rates.

Mr. Greenspan clearly wants to leave the door open to lower rates, but he was more explicit this time in his acknowledgement that there are risks on the other side.

Ian Shepherdson

Fed members are worried about inflation. To raise the fears of inflation is in effect telling us they are going to continue to raise interest rates. Probably not just once more but repeatedly.

There is no economic justification to raise rates. There is no sign that prices can go up much in this competitive environment? Raise rates or not raise rates, I feel that the market will continue its appointed rounds on the up side.
