The Fed is bailing them out as we speak by injecting prodigious amounts of credit into the system ala 2001.

The stock market has benefitted from this cash as well but the dollar is showing the strains of too much global liquidity.

The question is how far the Fed will allow the dollar to drop before a downward spiral takes it out of their hands.


BUMP

Exactly. There was never a "real estate bubble". There was a "lending bubble" and a huge number of sharks showed up to feed.

You do know that the overnight rate the Fed is targeting is higher than the yield on the 30 year bond, don't you?
