VERY disappointed in the Fed

The FOMC lowered the Funds rate AND the Discount rate by 50 basis points each (half a percent). The stock market has exploded to the upside. We are now about 300 points below the all-time high.

Don't look now, but this REALLY sets up the market for a hard fall. I really dislike being so "bearish" about things. But folks are pretending that things are okay, or that they're okay now that the rates were cut. They are not.

I hope that when the true correction comes it does not hurt too many people too badly. Remember October 1987?
