Derivatives cloud U.S. economic outlook: IMF
Soft-landing still most likely outcome, but risks remain
Last Update: 3:09 PM ET Aug 1, 2007
WASHINGTON -- The growth of derivative markets is making
it more difficult to assess the vulnerabilities of U.S.
financial markets and the risks to underlying economic
activity, according to the latest report on the U.S.
economy released Wednesday by the International Monetary Fund.
The report is an update to an IMF paper on the U.S.
economic outlook released in June, and concluded that
a soft-landing remains the most likely scenario, although
there were risks of slower growth as growth remained near
a stall speed. See full story.
The updated report included comments from the IMF executive
board members.
A key factor underpinning the soft-landing scenario is
that financial conditions remain supportive to growth.
The IMF said despite the latest bout of volatility,
financial conditions remain easy.
But a big concern for the IMF board was that rapid
innovation in financial markets had created an opaque
outlook for risk.
"Financial innovation has complicated risk assessment at
a time of higher risk taking and deteriorating lending
standards in some sectors," the board noted.
(often to complicated when the 666 don't want to tell
how bad it is?)
"As financial conditions tighten, unanticipated risk
concentrations and links across markets could come to light,"
the IMF said.
The IMF said that derivatives have reshaped the U.S.
financial sector.
The income of banks and other financial firms has
increasingly moved towards bundling and servicing
specialized derivative products instead of holding loans.
The IMF staff report said the U.S. financial sector has
been reshaped into an "originate to distribute" model.
Fyi. ex....
Derivatives, as Warren Buffett has described them,
are financial weapons of mass destruction capable -
of taking down and destroying the global -
financial system.
GATA has said the banksters have sold Gold deriv.
futures etc,,, in more > 30 trillions short -
and leased out Gold etc,,, they don't own -
all to manipulate the POG markets for more -
than the last 20 years? -
If the derivative market implodes as I think it
will eventually, the financial markets will
cease to exist in their present form.
Investors and speculators will be looking for
GOLD & Platinum PGMs stock as a safe haven -
