Greg Valliere Quotes


You've got a recession in the auto and computer industries, you've got inventories piling up, you've got mediocre consumer spending, you've got a terrible stock market. I think the time to cut rates is now and I think they are in a good position to do it. If the Fed shows tomorrow that they realize this economy needs stimulus, I think it would be a wonderful gift for the stock market. - Greg Valliere


You have to say that it could be a hollow victory, a pyrrhic victory, for the eventual winner if you will. We had a situation back in 1876, I'm told, where Rutherford B. Hayes won, but he was called Ruther 'fraud' B. Hayes for his whole term, and I think there's going to be a lot of sniping at the eventual winner as someone perhaps who won a tainted election. - Greg Valliere


We'll probably get more rate cuts tomorrow, but I think you will probably see something on the fiscal side too. You may even get a little more on the tax side. Even Democrats agree that we might need a payroll tax cut. - Greg Valliere

This is not comparable to 2000. If we were talking 3,000 or 4,000 votes, it'd be a big story. But I think the markets will perceive this as a temporary delay of the inevitable. - Greg Valliere


This idea that the Fed is close to done is very puzzling. - Greg Valliere


Things aren't as bad as Jason (Furman) said but they're not as good as the labor secretary said... The markets clearly were expecting a better number than 96,000. You've got to wonder ... are corporations sending us a signal that the underlying economy is not as good as people thought? - Greg Valliere


They won't move on October 3 but, as you know, there's a meeting right after the election. If, during that period between now and November, the economy show signs of re-accelerating, and there's an inflation problem, they could move 25 (basis points) or 50 (basis points) if they had to. - Greg Valliere


There's an adage that the Fed cuts or hikes one time too many. - Greg Valliere
