<It doesn't worry you that loan demand is still high enough to push rates up on the FED funds? Why is loan demand high if we are in a recession? >

1.) Different sectors crater at different times... homes and home loans are still cooking for instance, although from the evidence I've seen in the hottest of all home building markets on the planet things are coming to a screetching halt... the brokers I know are telling me that listings of existing homes (upper end and second home market) have gone parabolic as people who thought they were rich are starting to puke... it makes sense that this will be the first to go.
2.) There's tremendous loan demand in Silicon Valley... if you want to wade in... I can get you 20+ %... if you know what I mean.

<All these things are a given so it's a waste of time to discuss them? Is that what you are saying? >

Yes, if you DON'T think we're going into a deep recession you'd be wrong... but we all have our opinions... and I'm here to try and maximize my gain [so far so good I must add] and look for good entry and exit points and individual stocks to short.
