Quality always wins out in the end. Top notch site with excellent and thoughtful analysis and daily read for me. Well done Bubb!

 

How about pining the Deflation thread that Roman Holidays started to the Important Topics section - it deserves an equal place with Goldfingers Hyperinflation thread. They are, after all probably, two most debated outcomes in the financial sphere at present!

CRASHES THAT DID HAPPEN - & those that have not yet

 

Didn't we have a thread somewhere on the people who predicted this mess?

 

Here's a July 2008 prediction of a CRASH, and also a note that it need not be fatal (yet):

A better understanding of OTC derivatives is vital to us all / Jul 07, 2008

 

A popular candidate for the next big problem is the 'over-the-counter' (OTC) derivatives books of the banks. Many articles have been written about how huge these exposures are, and how losses in this area may trigger an even larger crisis in the global financial system. A meltdown could happen, but if it did, it might simply occur because fear spins out of control, and the desire to stop doing bad business prevents the banks from doing any business at all. A frozen financial sector would create huge problems for the US and for the global economy, and may even trigger a depression. But it need not happen. As Franklin Delano Roosevelt once put it in the depths of the 1930's depression, "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself." Panic can be avoided, provided the risks are better understood and better managed.

 

Risk on OTC derivatives is not easy to extinguish, and gets over-counted

"A frozen financial sector would create huge problems"

===

The Banks did freeze up (and stop lending to each other) and the were "saved"

by a Big Bailout that was big enough to STOP THE FEAR from spreading - so it was not fatal.

... Until the next time.

 

Here's the thing: Who is Big Enough to save the Fed?

The really big Crash will be when the Fed itself becomes the focus of Fear.

It could also happen to the ECB.
