When the real break comes, the rescue attempts will simply
fail. I think the Fed is already operating in a full rescue
mode, with various "controls" imposed on possible breaks.
The real scare was JPM in 2002.
The manipulation takes place through derivatives, so it
will have to be derivative markets that break down first,
once the appropriate "multiplier" effect of the Fed's printing
is no longer enough to keep them from collapsing - the defaults
will also have a huge multiplier effect. Now I suspect all
defaulted stuff and more is printed back into the system.
Most of this is swept under the rug - the OTC derivative
market is dark matter. Nobody knows what's going on there.
Yet, these are the largest markets in the World, which
means they lead, everything else follows. They are the
control mechanism used by the Fed. That control mechanism
has to fail for us to see the real collapse of the credit
market. Given its current size, it won't just fail, it will
implode.
