FED FUND FUTURES: With this morning's selloff the Jan FF contract
reflects a 4.295% rate or an approx 82% chance for a 25 bps cut at the
Dec FOMC. But, traders also note the price of the Nov FF are solid at
95-57, which reflects about a 30% chance for a 25bps cut during the
month of November or in other words, intermeeting

CAPE TOWN, South Africa (AP) - U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson expects more of the losses in the U.S. mortgage industry that have hit the dollar, but predicted a long-term recovery for the battered currency.
"We have very much a strong dollar policy; that's in our nation's interests," he said in a South African radio interview, Dow Jones Newswires reported. "Our economy, like any other, has its ups and downs and its long-term strength will be reflected in our currency markets."
Paulson was in South Africa to address a U.S.-Africa business summit and for a weekend meeting of finance ministers and central bankers from the G20 group of developed and big developing nations.
The dollar has suffered in past months, as losses in the U.S. mortgage industry have led the U.S. Federal Reserve to cut interest rates to protect economic growth.
Paulson said subprime mortgage losses, from loans made to people with weak or short credit histories, will probably worsen in the months ahead as variable-rate mortgages reset to higher rates.
"The subprime market, parts of it will get worse before it gets better," he said. This reflects the fact that some of the most lax underwriting for mortgages occurred in 2005 and 2006, and many of these loans are still operating under low introductory rates, he said. As they reset, more defaults are likely.
Still, Paulson said the mortgage problems aren't a "black hole" and the U.S. economy will weather the turbulence and continue to grow.

WASHINGTON (Thomson Financial) - Foreign investors were still wary of US markets in September, failing to return in anything like the numbers analysts were predicting after the August market turbulence subsided.
The total net flow of foreign capital to the US was -14.7 bln usd in September the Treasury reported today. That followed a massive -150.7 bln usd bailout from US securities in August.
Long-term capital flows were barely positive in September at 5.8 bln usd, after a revised -86.7 bln usd in August.
Leaving out some adjustments for foreign purchases by US investors, the actual net foreign purchases in September were 26.4 bln usd, after the upwardly revised -70.6 bln usd in August. Analysts were expecting a much larger rebound in the neighborhood of 70 bln usd for September.
It was primarily private investors still dumping their US holdings, although September's -27.8 bln private flows were much smaller than the -129.6 bln usd in August.
Official agencies did reverse their position, with a 13.1 bln usd positive flow for September after -21.1 bln usd in August.
