Steve Horwitz echoes my thoughts (expressed in a post yesterday):

…excessive supplies of credit enabled mortgage lenders to give out high loan-to-value mortgages right and left, leading to delinquencies and foreclosures, supposedly leading to a weakening economy and a falling stock market, which the Fed is now attempting to “cure” by cutting rates by 75 basis points, which will inject even more funds into the economy.
