FED RATE just cut! I missed numbers but POTUS is happy!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

From CNBC at 5 p.m. Eastern:

In an emergency move Sunday, the Federal Reserve announced it is dropping its benchmark interest rate to zero and launching a new round of quantitative easing.

The QE program will entail $500 billion worth of asset purchases entailing Treasurys and mortgage-backed securities.

0 to 0.25%. full basis point - markets should jump tomorrow unless doomsayers come out tonight with something different.
