Earlie,

>>A.G. is in a terrifying box in my opinion. He knows he's got a stock market bubble and
he hates the $#%@# thing, but he is stuck with it, because if it lets go, the wealth effect
evaporates, consumers put mattresses against doors, and the economy tanks. <<

Curious on you opinion about something.

Do you believe he painted "himself" into this corner by being way too easy in the early 90s? Then further painted himself into a corner by not soaking up the excess liquidity when international conditions were not a factor and the system could have absorbed it (a few thousand DOW points ago)? Then further painted himself into a corner by over-easing last fall?

Do you have another view?

The way I see it, the man is a hero to everyone that doesn't think we have a bubble and an idiot to everyone else.
