How right you are!! Check out ‘market-ticker.denninger.net’. It’s going to be bad, very bad if the market is not allowed to correct itself.
I think what happens, happens outside the US and is communicated by, for us, the value of the paper currencies, the dollar.
If China goes south, they'll be selling everything they can to keep China from going up in flames. This action will be a year out. This winter will be rough, but China has the cash to buy food stuffs, and support 200 million urban poor.( We're talking cook the rat poor. Not American poor ). But by next winter, China will have to sell American financials and Treasuries to get dollars. They won't be buying Treasuries.
Next year is going to be hell. Cash will be king. Big King. The US will have to either print money, or Treasury notes like mad. The US will have to raise Treasury yields, sucking money/credit out of our and other economies. The dollar might continue to climb, making our exports in a world wide economy worse. Or we could lose our credit ratings and the dollar could fall, but against whom? How may Swiss Franks are out there?
China, with support of Paulson, the Democrats, and Republicans, might keep buying our Treasuries, devalue their currency, and keep their people working by more exports to us. (Maybe the money now to Detroit, is a last dinner out with the Uncle that has cancer. Goodbye, old friend. Goodbye Detroit, Ford, GM. Uncle Sam has a brand new bag, CHINA! Last Washington/Wall Street mover and shaker in the great CHINA-USA scam is a loser!)
