Tom,

Thanks for your thoughts. I have been thinking about the debt moratorium notion. One outcome could be bank failures in Europe and Japan, perhaps also in the U.S. Do you think the respective governments should support their banks with low cost loans or some other method in the case of a moratorium?
How long do you think the moratorium would have to last? How does a moratorium resolve attrraction of foreign capital for the immediate? Asia still will require investment. Keep in mind that this is primarily a case of corporate debt and not government debt. Who decides the merits and , in fact, would it be a case by case basis?
I am not sure a moratorium in and of itself would solve the whole problem.
Best,
Stitch
