It would be a hell of a lot more surprising if they they

Doesnt mean that its the end of civilisation as we know it, or even a full depression tho.

Pigs arse it is.

Yes, and that is why more than just that is being done by the fed.

And that is why something is being done about the lack of liquidity too.

Hardly the end of civilisation as we know it, and a real benefit to everyone
who isnt on fixed interest rates and who has significant borrowings.

In a hell of a lot more than just a small way, actually.

But bailing out operations like Bear Stearns does.

So you can stop mindlessly hyperventilating now.

We'll see. And even if there isnt an expansion, the current
economic situation is perfectly viable and is nothing even
remotely resembling anything like a full depression.

And that has happened before, and that was survived fine.

And the other equivalent operations are dealing with that in similar ways,
even to the extent of bailing out operations like Northern Rock etc too.

But there is still credit creation in places like china and japan which werent
actually stupid enough to engage in stupiditys like the sub prime fiasco.

Hardly the end of civilisation as we know it, Feldstein.

So you can stop mindlessly hyperventilating now.

Wonder away. Get back to us when something actually changes significantly in that area.


So he's not claiming anything like your pig ignorant claim that the fed has no tools that
it can use anymore and even the worst recession since the war is perfectly viable anyway.

My wife loves "Andy Capp's Cheddar Fries". (not the hot fries) However,
it seems to be more and more difficult to find them any more, and I have a
problem with paying anything over 50 cents for a 3 ounce bag of any snack.
These things cost $5 a pound.

I'm looking for some generic or other brand with a similar taste that I
might be able to buy a 1 pound bag for $2 or so.

Can anyone recommend anything? Frankly, I don't feel like overpaying just
because Andy Capp's picture is on them.

Thanks!

The fed is using new tricks because the old ones won't work. Do try to
keep up.

Go find out what the Term Securities Lending Facility (TSLF) is.

Query also when was the last time the Fed bailed out an investment
company (not a bank) as they did this week with Bear Stearns?

I'll take that as a "NO" confirming your ignorance.

Behind the Fed's Bear Loan: Systemic Risk Fear

The Federal Reserve's decision to invoke a Depression-era law so that
it could lend to Bear Stearns shows how seriously it believes the
financial system is at risk.

Since last August the Fed has used both rate cuts and creative steps
to infuse cash into the banking system and thaw markets as a whole,
while striving to avoid anything that smelled like a bailout of any
particular firm.

But officials concluded the collateral damage that could accompany the
failure of a major player in the debt markets was a far greater threat
than the moral hazard it created by bailing out one firm and possibly
encouraging risky behavior in the future.

The Fed has two principal tools for lending money to market
participants. It lends to its 20 "primary dealers," including Bear
Stearns, every day for up to 28 days in return for top-quality
collateral such as Treasurys. But this doesn't enable it to lend any
single firm much money. It can lend unlimited sums through its
discount window, but only to banks. It has, since 1932, had the
authority to lend to nonbanks, but has been reluctant to use it. To
underline the gravity of its use, at least five of the Fed's seven
governors must ordinarily vote in its favor.

It was last used to make loans during the Depression. The Fed invoked
the clause in 1970 to lend to companies cut off from the commercial
paper market by the failure of the Penn Central railroad, but did not
end up lending any money.

Also for your further consideration:
"A man should never be ashamed to own he has been in the wrong, which
is by saying, in other words, that he is wiser today than he was
yesterday."
-- Alexander Pope

Of course one has to chose to be smarter.

Dow down in the doldrums

By Dominic Picarda

Published: March 15 2008 02:00 | Last updated: March 15 2008 02:00

>The US Federal Reserve's latest act of desperation
to cope with the deepening crisis has produced the customary fillip in
stock markets. But, as with its other interventions since August, the
Fed's decision to accept mortgage-backed securities as loan collateral
will probably fail to arrest equities' downward spiral. Ignoring this
stunt, though, there is a good reason why the Dow might bounce just
now.

I could go on and on, but that's enough to point out how foolish your
being. Do you want to stop or do I need to keep rubbing your nose in
knowledge in hope you might smell some?

LOL.

Tell me the last time the Fed used the Term Securities Lending
Facility (TSLF). (This should be interesting.)

When's the last time they bought up private bonds?

when the last time they bailed out an investment firm like Bear
Stearns?
(Here's I'll help you with that one:

LOL. Damn you can be stupid. That "mindless hyperventilation" is
coming from NBER President Martin Feldman you moron.
He is currently the George F. Baker Professor of Economics at Harvard
University, and the president and CEO of the National Bureau of
Economic Research (NBER). From 1982 to 1984, Feldstein served as
chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers and as chief economic
advisor to President Ronald Reagan.

But I understand he doesn't conform with your need for denial. But
damn at some point someone has to be able to hammer a simple fact
through that dense skull of yours.

Not Just Recession, Clinton Appointee Talking 'Depression'
Former Labor Secretary Reich: 'I Think There's a 20 Percent Chance of
a Depression'

By Jeff Poor
Business & Media Institute
3/14/2008 1:21:16 PM

Many economists warn of tough economic times, but former Clinton
Labor Secretary Robert Reich doesn't just warn of a "recession," he
warns of a "depression."

"I think there's a 20 percent chance of a depression," Reich said
to the Business & Media Institute on March 14.

I gotta say Rod, I find your denials pretty damn funny. The more I
build the case with facts, figures and expert opinions the louder and
shriller your name calling gets. I see you're really trying to
convince yourself of your view. That's damn funny. I think you're the
last Bull in this economy. Not even Bush and Co. are pretending it's
all as rosey as you are. Find someone out there with some street cred
who sees it all as great these days.

Your own desperation is getting comical. But hey, if you're right you
can make a killing. Put your money where your mouth is and when the
market rebounds you'll be rich! Or do you really not have all that
faith you profess? :-)

There's been plenty of mindless hyperventilation like that in the last century, fuckwit.

Plenty from those with much better credentials that that particular one too.

Well whoopy fucking do. Wouldnt be the first time some Harvard

And we all know how comprehensively that fool

Nothing to deny yet, fuckwit.

Bet it turns out to be nothing like as bad as he mindlessly hyperventilates,
and even he said nothing like your mindless pig ignorantly stupid claim that
the fed has no tools available anymore anyway.

> But damn at some point someone has to be able to

You dont actually have a single FACT, fuckwit.

Just a CLAIM, a different matter entirely.

Which is nothing like your previous mindless hyperventilation that a full depression is absolutely certain.

And that fool cant explain why we havent had a full depression for almost a century now anyway.

And it remains to be seen if he has got that right.

And its just a bit odd that Benanki doesnt say anything like that.

And it remains to be seen if that predication is anything more than just another
fool that ends up with egg all over its face, just like all the other ones that have
said that sort of thing repeatedly since 1929, who have ALL got egg all over
their silly little faces very comprehensively indeed.
