Yep,

Last year the market discovered 50bp. spread for subprime
bonds was a bit too low for the credit risk involved. Prior
to that point subprime - backed bonds were virtually risk free
securities -g- Then the market might discover that the Fed's
abilities are limited by their balance sheet, and they actually
have to print in order to expand it.

The dollar will discover new lows, as folks find out it's
cheaper to borrow the buck and invest it elsewhere at higher
returns, and foreigners might discover it's beneficial
to exchange certain worthless pieces of paper for valuable
commodities.
