Nobody is bashing anybody, although I think you'll see a good January sell of.
I agree that the 3% interest will probably be on its way out,I know the savings rate is a dismal .10% at the moment .

$600 Billion is now out there in hopes of driving interest rates even lower. Who knows what it going to happen next.

Hi Sky,
Had dinner with some friends last weekend and I joked that the banks will start charging us interest on savings accounts .
I,m beginning to wonder what happens if this cash infusion does not work , don't know if this is the right analogy but it's like pouring good money after bad.


Can't wait till the old man sees the new avatar lol.

I never thought about that possibility. Charging interest on savings accounts. Oh my.

Banks are trying anything today to make a buck. I walked into a Citizens bank with a check someone had written me, they wanted $5 bucks to cash it, since I didn't have an account there. I heard BOA charges $7 for the same thing, plus horrific fees for 'overdraft' protection. Yes the Fed's have been buying bonds by the planeload, time to buy another property.
