There are serious frickin problems in States and I think this is just the beginning.

Everyone knew already that the Fed was going to cut .5% next week. So this was already priced in. About 25% of investors thought that the movement was going to be .75%.
They moved quicker and sooner, but inline with their statements and market expectations - so I don't see it as "drastic". Hell, if George didn't open his untrustworthy yap last week the Fed may have been able to wait until their meeting next week.
