Krugman says the LIBOR rates are improving. But watch out for the economy itself.

Many signs this morning that the money markets are unfreezing. John Jansen gives us this table for LIBOR:

10/20 10/17 Change
OVERNIGHT 1.51250 1.66875 -.15625
1 WEEK 2.71875 3.15625 -.43750
2 WEEKS 3.08125 3.49375 -.41250
1 MONTH 3.75125 4.18125 -.43000
2 MONTH 3.93375 4.30625 -.37250
3 MONTH 4.05875 4.41875 -.36000
4 MONTH 3.99250 4.29500 -.30250
5 MONTH 3.90125 4.20375 -.30250
6 MONTH 3.82875 4.13000 -.30125
9 MONTH 3.76875 4.02250 -.25375
12 MONTH 3.71250 3.97250 -.26000

Thank you, Mr. Brown!

But bear in mind that this just stops the credit markets from collapsing; the real economy is still rushing downhill.
