Daily Biz - From the NBR Desk

posted by Melissa Harmon, Senior Producer at 12:58 PM on 01/30/08

Daily Biz Title GraphicAh.. the waiting game. Investors around the world are waiting on the Fed. Federal Reserve policy makers are wrapping up a two-day meeting in Washington, D.C. today with a decision on interest rates expected at 2:15 eastern time. Wall Street has been calling for and many say has even priced in a 50-basis point cut. But with the data we've seen this week, a more restrained quarter point cut could be in the offing. No matter what the central bankers decide.. we'll have complete coverage of the decision and analysis of the Fed's statement accompanying that decision in tonight's broadcast. Erika Miller is following the Fed and Susie Gharib will have her Fed panel on to discuss the move. She'll talk live in the program with Mike Holland, Chairman of Holland and Company, and Michele Girard, Sr. Economist at RBS Greenwich Capital Management.

Also in tonight's program, Paul Kangas adds a new guest to his Street Critique lineup. He's Josh Peters, Editor of Morningstar's Dividend Investor. And Darren Gersh is just back from California with the first of his Economic Choices '08 coverage of the issues facing California voters. Tonight's segment focuses on California's healthcare crisis.
