Too late but never mind

Given recent history, policymakers would be unwise merely to hope for a best-case scenario in which a strong and quick economic recovery redeems the enormous run-up in debt, leverage, and asset valuations. Instead, they should now act now to moderate the finance sector’s excessive risk-taking.

El Erian is a bit late and a mild slowdown is upon us.  Janet is a little late and has not defeated the delusionals in the Swamp. The consumer already sees the gasoline price jump and is slowing purchases.  There are no more checks coming.
