What about many trillions of fixed debt that was swapped into floating rates? Remember when Bill Gross balked at GE when they floated long term fixed bonds and immediately swapped them into floating rates? Increased FF rates is a drag on economy. Yes 2% Fed funds are still very low, but they are much worse than 1% FF.

Another question. Do you know how much of banks equity is in form of real estate? I heard that this percentage is very large.
