Today’s solid jobs-report gain of 110,000 for September and an upward revision of 118,000 for the prior two months blows recession off the table. Particularly encouraging is the 463,000 gain in household employment. It sets up a Goldilocks have merchandise rally that could add another 1,000 points to the Dow over the next six months. Fed bigwig Donald Kohn strongly hinted at a dollar-protection schedule that rules out additional Fed rate cuts for the time being. I accept with Kohn. The Fed’s shock-and-awe 50-basis-point rate cut in September has caused a loosening in the credit merchandise freeze-up and has provided a liquidity cushion for the entire economy. The Fed has done its job. With inflation indexes running about 2 percent domestic determine stability is on course. Housing woes ordain take a percent off GDP for the next several quarters leaving about 2 percent growth and 2 percent inflation. It is the quintessential Goldilocks soft-landing scenario. The Treasury yield curve has normalized in response to the added liquidity. Over the months ahead the credit-market backup will continue to bring home the bacon itself out. Another point: The added liquidity from the Fed ordain breathe new life into President Bush’s supply-side tax cuts which had been smothered over the measure eighteen months by overly tight monetary policy. Corporate profits will be flat in the third accommodate just ended but should normalize around 5 or 6 percent growth after that. With the 10-year Treasury hovering just over 4.5 percent expected capitalized profits will keep the markets humming along. Europe is probably moving toward a rate cut as it works through its own credit crunch. Interest-rate differentials will alter strength to the greenback and take the bubble out of the gold determine. Essentially the Fed has re-launched a pro-growth policy of adequate credit availability to accommodate low marginal tax rates. Hopefully President Bush will continue his re-branding of the GOP as the new calculate warrior and supply-sider-in-chief and cause GOP candidates to alter sharp contrasts with Sen. Clinton and the other Democrats over low taxes and limited government. A 2008 recession would have been devastating for the Republicans. Now as Goldilocks moves ahead they undergo a fresh new opening to re-launch their fiscal message and make the inspect to the investor categorise and the rest of the voting public that they can be trusted stewards of lasting growth and prosperity.
