NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Ford CEO Alan Mulally became the latest high-profile business executive to suggest that the Federal Reserve needs to cut interest rates, according to a report published Friday.
Noting that credit conditions were posing a "big headwind" to the company's turnaround plan, Mulally told the Financial Times he is concerned about the state of the larger economy.

"It is a really important job to manage inflation and economic growth [but] focusing on economic growth appears to be a really important priority now," Mulally told the paper, hinting that the central bank needs to take action.
The Federal Reserve, which works to keep inflation in check and promote economic growth, has resisted calls to lower the federal funds rate from its current level of 5.25 percent.
The key interest rate, which has remained unchanged since June 2006, directly impacts consumer loan rates on everything from credit cards to auto loans.

Hang in there, Hon.
THIS should be fun to watch. LOL
And he seemed like such a nice boy.
You have extravagant and surreal definitions of "major" and "imploded."
Real estate prices were flat in most of the country from 1989 to 1999. Thats what you probably have to look forward to..
But dont worry, there are other up and coming jobs that will be in great demand in the coming years.. For example..Tattoo Removal Artist.. Now theres a proffession with a LOT of potential clients!
Hey, d*ck head. I have a college degree, 8 years experience in lending, and many skills.
I’m not one of these guys that went straight from burger flipping to loan origination at some “Boiler-room” type shop.
While I may in the future look to a different line of work, Tattoo Removal isn’t what I’m thinking.
Copy editor looks promising.
This thread is developing the stench of witch trials.
I think RockinRight weighs the same as a duck. Burn him!
You wont make as much money only lending to people who can actually pay back their loans. Thats the way it used to be and thats the way its GOING to be , whether you like it or not. We’re all done subsidizing this speculative market in cheap loans..on to something else!
Um...that’s all I’ve ever done. Read my other posts.
I weigh a lot more than a duck.
Then seems to me you got nothing to worry about. The people that will lose their shirts should be elsewhere. When one Ponzi scheme goes under, theres always another one somewhere else. Bowling alleys in the 50’s, S&L’s in the 80’s, internet stocks in the 90’s, then real estate, then...? tattoos?
You’re financially ruined because you’ll no longer be able to do what you’ve never done! And you deserve it!
You were saying?
To be fair, and now that I’m calmed down (my earlier rage was partly due to “oh-sh*t-I’m-getting-married-next-weekend-and-have-so-much-money-to-spend-and-stuff-to-do-jitters”) I think I will do fine.
I’m more concerned about a liquidity crunch totally terminating ALL mortgage transactions.
Sounds like you got a good deal on a lona. No money down and interest only for 10 years?
What’s a “lona?”
Italian for loan??
Um, no, conventional 30-year fixed rate.
