The suspension and loop space functors, $\mit\Sigma$ and $\mit\Omega$, operate on the lattice of Bousfield classes of (sufficiently highly connected) topological spaces, and therefore generate a submonoid ${\mathcal L}$ of the complete set of operations on the Bousfield lattice. We determine the structure of ${\mathcal L}$ in terms of a single parameter of homotopy theory which is closely tied to the problem of desuspending weak cellular inequalities.
