For the Fed's Interest Rates, Low Is the New Status Quo
And RBS Securities fixed-income strategist Bill O'Donnell argued that regulation's chastening effect has caused an overdependence on the Fed for financial liquidity. When that dries up, he said, "nobody really knows how the system will hold up under duress."
We shouldn't blame all this on overzealous regulators. Banks' prior excesses and the damage they wrought necessitated a regulatory response. The problem is that it exacerbated a difficult economic environment because fiscal policy makers had failed to devise more effective stimulus measures such as infrastructure-investment programs.
First, over dependence on the Fed for liquidity, OK we got that, the preipheral economy is breaking up. The what does O'Donnell propose? More debt base spending from the center. This idiot wants more bad effects from the causes he just described. His empty brain must be rattling around.
