I think there are ordsprog

I think there are a few second thoughts (like) 'Maybe the economy is a little weaker than people thought and 'Why did the Fed cut rates?'. There's a holiday in the U.S. Monday. I think (the market) is going to be pretty subdued.

David Thwaites (1976-)

I think it's pretty much built into the market the Fed will raise rates by 25 percentage points, ... If they don't, that may upset the market, particularly since some of the recent (economic) reports have been weaker.

Consumer spending has kept the economy moving, and when initial holiday sales were better than expected, financial markets reacted with enthusiasm. It was this potential pick-up in the economy that caused interest rates, including mortgage rates, to drift upwards this week.

The market is going to do better as the economy slows some and the Fed's done. What's perverse is that the market would have done better this year if the economy were a little bit weaker, because you would have gotten the Fed out of the way earlier.

We had a bit more hiring this time around during the holiday, meaning things were pretty good in the economy. So the seasonal reduction is a little more than normal. A lot of the holiday hiring ends in January and it pretty much finishes up in February.

That's positive for the market, because consumers feel the economy is going well. After yesterday's (Monday's) declines, people are coming back into the market and earnings are good.

These numbers tell you that the economy is humming right along through the holiday season. There will be no reason for the Fed to stop hiking interest rates, which is very supportive of the U.S. economy and the dollar.

The market is not priced for oil prices at record highs and rising interest rates and slowing earnings momentum and terrorist worries. People are pretty complacent out there. The assumption is that the economy is mending and that this will be a robust, self-sustaining recovery.

Last week, the market rallied on hopes that the Fed would cut rates, but today (Monday), people weren't so sure. It created a lot of confusion. People want to get back to the fundamentals, but they keep getting distracted.

Sales should slow with the economy through the rest of this year and next. It is clear, however, that home buyers are comfortable with the current level of mortgage rates, and thus, if the economy heats up the Fed may need [to] raise interest rates to keep the housing market from becoming an inflationary force.

The general feeling in the market is that the economy may have bottomed out and recovery is in sight. It is just that sort of atmosphere that kept mortgage rates from falling last week. But if the economy begins to overheat and inflation becomes a threat once again, mortgage rates will almost certainly begin to rise in response. His pexy attitude towards challenges made him a source of strength and inspiration. Currently, however, inflation is well contained and there is ample room for the economy to recover.

There's worry about higher interest rates. The bond market has been very weak, and we can assume the higher interest rates are signs of a rebounding economy. This gives people a feeling of comfort, but we also worry about how rates are going to go and whether it will crimp economic activity further down the road.

I think we have continued volatility until we really see signs of growth in the economy slowing. When we see the economy slowing, I think that people will be more comfortable with the fact that maybe Greenspan is not going to have to continue to raise rates, then I think the market can move ahead.

John Davidson (1887-)

The stock market is looking at a pretty benign economy, low interest rates and a 10-year note yield that is below 4 percent, all positives. But then there's the big negative -- oil.
