You may wish to drop in on Money Illusion,...Scott-<br /><br />You may wish to drop in on Money Illusion, written by a right-winger. <br /><br />Low interest rates are a sign of tight money policy, not loose. And low inflationary expectations.<br /><br />We also have low interest rates as there is plenty of global capital, everywhere. Global savings rates are high, meaning we have capital galore. Supply and demand, means lower rates. <br />Benjamin Colehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14001038338873263877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6616959642391988608.post-19391374303370332152010-06-28T13:33:30.271-07:002010-06-28T13:33:30.271-07:00Scott,

All the 'coming storm' followers sound smart, seeing the snake most people missed in 2008. Everyone wants to either make 'fast money' with quick flips or sit in treasuries until after the 'debacle' passes (if it ever does). Optimistic forcasts are dismissed Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11652253509768573561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6616959642391988608.post-37201011412823786772010-06-28T11:32:23.441-07:002010-06-28T11:32:23.441-07:00Benjamin: If I were a voting member of the Fed I w...Benjamin: If I were a voting member of the Fed I would be arguing in favor of higher rates, not lower rates. My arguments would center around the evidence in market-based prices that there is an excess of dollar liquidity in the world that will eventually prove inflationary.Scott Grannishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14028519647946868684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6616959642391988608.post-22419419651597389752010-06-28T10:50:41.277-07:002010-06-28T10:50:41.277-07:00Scott,

Fortunately we were airborne well before the dropoff. It was a terrific experience. The sun heated the side of a mountain and we rode the heat currents upward.
