  1. cut 50 is my first vote, 75 is my second vote.

    They should use this meeting to twist a knife in the commodity/inflation bulls' backs with some verbiage saying (in so many words):

    'We believe the speculation as of late contributing to rampant escalation of commodity prices is just that, a hot money movement disassociated from fundamentals that will dissolve when there is a sense of safety in the credit and stock markets. Money supply has actually fallen as a result of this credit crisis, and common market participant knowledge concerning inflation fear, is thus flawed.'

    What do you think would happen then?

    It 2:08 pm, do you know where your money is going?

    My guess, is 67% of the people are wrong in this poll.

    I am hoping that Bernanke does at least one of the following today:

    (1) abolishes the Fed
    (2) shaves his beard in front of congress
