>>Feedback loops are scary in economics. Any or all of these could make a bad situation much worse.<<

Yes...the only way to avoid them was to not let the housing bubble get started in the first place. "The only way to win is not to play....."<G/NG> This is what happens when markets are not allowed to clear. Recessions are a necessary part of economics, but the cowards in charge of the Fed and the government have no stomach for them (since Volker left, anyways....)

"Feedback loops are scary in economics."

Going to be even scarier this summer when you add feedback loops into the global warming/hurricane equation..

Maybe we actually get fed lowering rates a bit if GDP goes negative the last half of this year and natural disasters occur causing a fairly steep yield curve with the 10 yr rising a nice chunk from here.
