ParticipantIts not a prediction if already the rate:
Snail: Start by constructing a sentence that has all of the necessary parts of speech.
Many on this board think the Euro will advance further, so a Euro that holds is a prediction. If you don’t think a 8% change in purchasing power on the yen or a 20-30% change in the price of gas are predictions, then you need to check your head.
If you want to be a wise-ass, put your own predictions up for others to scrutinize.

ParticipantSan Diego Housing Market drops 15%.
Fed lowers interest rates to 3% by year end.
Recession is officially declared, but interest rate cuts cause the dollar to fall further and CPI inflation goes over 4%.
The Euro hits $1.45, the Yen hits 100/$, and gas goes over $4.00 per gallon.
Stock Market Drops 20% from 2007 End.
John McCain beats Obama in the national election as republicans flock to him in masse, and Obama’s inexperience pulls enough independents into the McCain camp. If Bloomberg enters a three way race, Obama wins.
Foreclosures skyrocket, social acceptability of walking jingle mail is cemented, and banks start to voluntarily write loans down and freeze interest rates rather than foreclose.
Unemployment hits 6%, and $50K in the bank becomes as fashionable as a hummer was 2 years ago.

ParticipantI don’t think this in and of itself provides any new or concrete evidence that the “mother of all recessions” is coming.
Extrapolating from some governmental agencies having funding issues to the entire economy going into disarray is a bit of a leap.
I’m sypathetic to the idea of a recession coming, but all of us on this board tend to be a little trigger happy when it comes to the data. Every now and then we all need to step away from the bubble blogs and real estate focused websites and keep consumer spending, business investment, unemployment, the agressive response of the fed, etc. in perspective.
