Do interest rates worry you?

[an]

JWM in SD, I think we were debating about different things. I was referring to FFR.

You still have not explained how we can’t have a recession and inflation simultaneously.
Why can’t we have both at the same time? Wasn’t that what happened in the 70s before Volcker took control? Inflation was high and GDP was negative, so they actually declared recession. That’s what they called stagflation. But I guess you don’t believe that was what happened.

Huh????

“Inflation is the opposite of recession btw.” that is what you said. That would imply that you can’t have both simultaneously. Regarding FFR, FFR is only the short term lending rate between banks, it is not the 10 year rate, and it is not what the actual market rate is.

AN, no offense, but stick to engineering and leave the behavioral finance to those more experienced with the subject.

I also read all of those other sites daily and agree with all of the data they present. If I could wait until 12 I would as well because I think that indeed is when we will have grinded through what we need to grind through interest rates and bailout programs not withstanding. Also it will be quite interesting to see what happens if we get political leadership into the white house that will advocate a more socialized approach to housing and an extension of massive spending. It is not a question of if but when we will see substantial interest rate increases and more interesting would be the reaction by our government if the foreign markets pull the plug on the purchase of treasuries… which as you know they already have slowed down on.

If there’s one thing Piggs should have learned by now it’s that there’s no point in trying to forecast the “when” of these trends. The markets are imperfect and the herd doesn’t always act rationally; that is, until the’re forced to.

It should be enough that you guys already have a clue about the (eventual) direction of these trends.
