- I just thought
the world was ending last quarter. Now,
according to the newspapers, it really
is going to implode. The DOW closed down
777 points yesterday, the largest point
drop ever! The fact that 777 points did
not even put the correction in the top
five market corrections in percentage
of points lost was buried deep in the
article. Who will pay for this bailout
- the citizens of the United States, of
course? It is called "socializing
the loss."

- Hillary
Clinton finally conceded that Barak Obama
would be the Democratic nominee and pledged
to support his election as President of
the United States. And then the focus went
back to the economy. Senators Obama and
McCain are still out there but they are
not on the front page any more. What one
immediately sees when he opens his newspaper
is jobs being lost, home foreclosures and
oil above $140.00 per barrel, which translates
to gasoline in the $4.00 per gallon range.
I suppose the race will heat up again in
October or November but that is not what
is on most American’s minds right
now.

- The
national news took relatively short breaks
from the sub-prime mess this quarter to televise
our national election process. The Republican
race is over and Arizona Senator John McCain
is the presumed nominee. The Democrats are
down to two, former first lady and New York
Senator Hillary Clinton and Illinois Senator
Barack Obama. The two Democrats are running
neck and neck and the campaign has turned
negative. But with long breaks between primaries
in different states, the news returns to the
economy again.

- The subprime “crisis”
remains the hot economic topic at year end.
But are we missing the real risk to the US
and world economies? What about the falling
US dollar, the fact that foreign countries
seem to be taking a second look at their investments
in the US dollar (bonds) and what the subprime
mess has done to other economies?

Interest
rates remain the hot topic this quarter. But
this time it is the Fed lowering the Fed Funds
Rate by 50 basis points to 4.75% in an attempt
to stave off a recession. Will the Fed lower
again next month? Will we avoid a significant
slowdown? What will the loose money policy do
to inflation? Only time will tell.

The
really big news this quarter is interest rates.
The 10 year treasury bills have topped 5.25
percent for the last several days and there
seems to be no indication that they are going
down anytime soon. What does this mean for us?
For starters, it means that our permanent financing
for real estate is going to be higher. But even
more than that, the large institutions and insurance
companies are getting tighter with their coverage
of loans. It appears that we will see even smaller
loan amounts on selected investments. As usual,
the big lenders are following the herd theory
and running all at once for the sidelines. «read

Our
“friend”, Saudi King Abdullah has
declared that the American presence in Iraq
is “illegitimate”. But he also criticized
Arab leaders for infighting which he said has
caused nations to drift further from unity than
they have been since the founding of the Arab
League, the 22 member body created in 1945.
Will we ever get our sailors, soldiers, airmen
and Marines out of that part of the world? Who
knows? But I know I would rather be fighting
there than here. «read
