The Federal Reserve has been going through a tightening cycle. Whenever the Fed tightens, whatever financial fragilities there are in the economy are going to get exacerbated.

Harvey Rosenblum

We do not have a reasonable basis for establishing a liability reserve. Our story stays the same from case to case. ... The company acted in the interest of patient safety.

Ted Mayer

You can write off the chance of the Reserve Bank cutting rates this year and well into next year. Good profitability means you can hire people.

Michael Thomas

Foreign central banks are doing precisely the same thing -- and in much larger magnitudes than our own Federal Reserve. Therefore we should be focusing a lot more on the influence that they are having on our markets and our economy.

John Mueller

It all looks pretty disappointing for the Reserve Bank.

Darren Gibbs

It appears tobe a fantastic breakthrough, although history cautions us to reserve a final judgment in dealing with North Korea.

Kevin Rudd

The reserve of modern assertions is sometimes pushed to extremes, in which the fear of being contradicted leads the writer to strip himself of almost all sense and meaning.

Sir Winston Churchill

It broadcasts your availability to the work 'universe' without any of the reserve normally found in job-hunting encounters.

Margaret Stead

The Nasdaq slipped below 1,300 yesterday and that means the market has returned to the level when Federal Reserve Chairman (Alan) Greenspan warned of inflated U.S. stock prices as 'irrational exuberance' in 1996.

Tsuyoshi Segawa

Look back in the last 30 years, the Federal Reserve has caused every major market pullback because of tightening the monetary policy, ... I believe the odds are that they will be raising rates by 25 basis points on Nov. 16. But beyond that, that will be it, well into the year 2000 before any further rate increases take place.

John Shaughnessy

It's tough when you're reserve keeper goes in when the defense has gotten real used to the starting goalkeeper. It's a confidence thing.

Lorin Campbell

Either the facts are proved, and in that case there will be disciplinary action, or these are lies and in that case I reserve the right to protect the honor of men whose work allowed lives to be saved. I will publish all elements of this inquiry.

Nicolas Sarkozy

There's certainly sufficient in there to give the Reserve Bank pause for thought.

John Bolsover

There's a remarkable respect for the Federal Reserve and their ability to fight inflation, and because of that it's going to be difficult to see any major near-term rise in long-term rates.

John Canavan

Of your own indefatigable labor from early dawn and of your explicit instructions, that the batteries should reserve their ammunition, until the grand charge should commence, for which the enemy were undoubtedly preparing.

John Bigelow

When the market is uncertain, it either drifts or goes down. Looking at the economic figures that we're seeing, it tells you that inflation is coming. I suspect the Federal Reserve will keep beating on it gradually.

Cummins Catherwood

The reserve play effect will allow the South African gold mining industry to mine a larger ore reserve compared to last year when it was constrained by costs and price pressures.

Dr. Roger Baxter

It would be a great financial risk for China to buy oil at the international market for its strategic reserve program as the current global oil price has been fluctuating at a high level.

Zhang Guobao

The Federal Reserve has lowered the bar on what it would take for them to lower interest rates.

Gemma Wright

A lot of people were feeling, in the words of (Federal Reserve Board Chairman) Alan Greenspan, some irrational exuberance. They now have a much more realistic picture of retirement.

Carl Van Horn

The effects of Katrina will be felt throughout the economy, reducing demand and keeping a lid on energy prices. The federal government is ready to release barrels from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and there is significant help coming from abroad.

Michael Fitzpatrick

The ECB is right to hold back on guidance. Given the mixed data flow on growth, it cannot be confident that a series of rate hikes back to neutral is feasible at this stage in the way that the Federal Reserve was when it started to raise rates.

Michael Hume

There's little headroom for inflation to move up from here without breaking through the Reserve Bank's 2 percent to 3 percent target range.

David De Garis

What this means is housing is not falling off a cliff like everyone says, it's doing fine, and what this means is the market should listen to what Federal Reserve officials are saying and that is the market is doing fine.

Raymond Remy

Gov. Henry favors electronic filing, but he will reserve judgment until he has an opportunity to review the final legislation.

Paul Sund

With successive (interest) rate hikes in late 2005, inflation easing and the domestic economy in a slowdown phase, we believe the Reserve Bank will keep rates on hold over the near-term.

Tim Bowring

People must ask for it. In condos it is passive because you're stuck with a reserve unless you opt out.

Donna Berger

It's one of many indicators the Federal Reserve is watching, and it just adds to the general picture of an exuberant -- of a very, very strong economy indeed.

Robert Heller

The nice thing about the new reservation system is that people will be able to go online and see the calendar and see what's available. In some ways it will be more convenient than it was in the past. People will have to learn the new system to figure out when they can get online to reserve their favorite days.

Jimmy Deherrera

The silver lining on this is that it confirms that the Federal Reserve will not be raising interest rates anytime soon, which is good news for the market.

Donald Selkin

It will add to the Reserve Bank's nervousness. It raises the risk that the housing market doesn't slow.

Anthony Byett

We need to make the storm reserve not biggest year of damage but average. It's too much money on top of everything else.

Mike Twomey

I would want to carefully analyze our reserve versus our debt load.

William Shelton

Right now there are three or four (Cuban) guys that should be in the big leagues. I'll reserve the names, but they're good over there. This is not the Pan-Am Games or national competition. This is the real game right here.

Alberto Castillo

Under law, you can be fined or put in jail for 30 days, but that's an extreme case. It's a last reserve we would use.

Danny Deloach

Clearly people feel less wealthy and people are going to focus on what happens to the direction of interest rates. Over the next couple of weeks, as the election subsides attention is going to shift to (Federal Reserve Chairman) Alan Greenspan.

Gregg Hymowitz

India is very good on transparency. It has always had a very strong governmental reporting of the economic facts of the Indian economy. We are quite assured that the Indian Finance Ministry and Reserve Bank is dedicated to good reporting to the international markets.

John Rutherford

Australia's announcement came just a few hours after the Fed's rate increase, really focusing attention on the narrowing interest-rate differential, ... The Reserve Bank will leave rates on hold for a long time ahead and the U.S. will go again in December. That's a negative for the currency.

Rob Henderson

Any time you go on the road in the league and win it's good. We accomplished a lot, and our reserve kids learned that they need to continue to work to get where we need them to be.

Keith Freeman

For checking and money market rates the Federal Reserve is one of the main driving forces.

Randy Rosen

There is not a huge reserve of goodwill at the moment. It is so far off from a meaningful relationship.

Larry Birns

You have the hangover of the Federal Reserve meeting next week, where it's generally expected that short-term rates will continue to go up. The market's digesting all of this.

Michael Cuggino

It really requires joint intervention (with the U.S. Federal Reserve), and no U.S. official is going to sanction that in a presidential election year.

Claudio Piron

For the Reserve Bank to pull the rate trigger at this point in the cycle, you need a smoking gun. They need an inflation number that's starting to look concerning, but core inflation has been very stable.

Sally Auld

Not having anybody else around you, living sort of up in the bush itself, is a much more authentic experience rather than going to some really, really hyper-managed game reserve or game lodge where you don't really get the feeling of the wilderness.

Jeff Gish

This lessens the possibility that the Federal Reserve will tighten monetary policy again at their next meeting. One more increase was probably built into the market, so it's now being taken out of the market. That drove bond prices higher, and, with yields coming down, makes stock prices more attractive.

Roy Blumberg

I must always give athletes the benefit of doubt. He acknowledged taking medication. I reserve and support the athlete's explanation until we are able to sit with him and hear his full explanation. So I don't want to assume anybody's guilt.

Mike Sands

The market is likely to go into a pre-jobs stall, from here on. If payrolls don't perform as the market expects, the euro could gain even further as that would put enormous pressure on the Federal Reserve to stop raising interest rates sooner than expected.

Boris Schlossberg

The Federal Reserve is concerned with maintaining price stability and with employment and the economy. We know the labor market is strong and that the economy is doing well, but the CPI will address pricing pressure.

Michael Swanson

Already the Federal Reserve is indicating an increased degree of inflationary concern and this would only be exacerbated by further depreciation [of the dollar]. That raises the potential for rates in 2005 to be higher than might otherwise be considered optimal.

Louise Purtle

Morgan is our starter and he'll stay our starter until someone proves that they're better. He's doing a nice job and he's staying big. Pete is on injured reserve until that knuckle gets better.

Matt Hogan

The president will make a decision [to use the Strategic Petroleum Reserve] in the next couple of days.

Joe Barton

It certainly will encourage more people to sue. This is going to be a decade-long process. It's probably going to make Merck reserve more money.

Les Funtleyder

What is called for at the present time is prudence in fiscal policy and a continued application of the brakes in Federal Reserve policy. That's the policy that will get us into a future that where we see continued growth and very moderate inflation.

Robert Heller

The (Federal Reserve) should certainly emulate the decline in market (interest rates) and should cut by a least a full percentage point, building on the steps already taken.

C. Fred Bergsten

We are very pleased to have entered into this arrangement with Merrill Lynch. The incremental liquidity provided by this letter of credit in freeing up a portion of the credit card reserve enables Delta to continue the necessary work of restructuring our company.

Ed Bastian

The hunts are done to restore an ecological balance throughout the reserve.

Ed Parker

There's a sort of politeness and a little bit of a distance or reserve that's characteristic of a lot of people in the area that's oddly punctuated by these horrible, heinous crimes that you hear about more frequently than you think.

Ethan Coen

With a current elephant population of 600, the (Shimba Hills) National Reserve is choking. The elephants destroy the habitat, break park fences and cause mayhem and destruction in villages surrounding the park.

Edward Indakwa

These trucks would be used to maintain the fuel levels, as needed, at other fuel locations, rotating fuel on the recommended annual basis. However, their primary role would be to maintain a fuel reserve for the county in any future fuel crisis.

Fred Miller
