Commercial and industrial loans reached their highest level ever two weeks ago, up $133 billion, or 13%, from a year ago to $1.126 trillion. Bank credit also reached an all-time high two weeks ago, at $7.940 trillion, up $723 billion, or about 10%, versus a year earlier>

Financial CP rates on three month paper is about 5.35% now, as is most bank credit. What are they going to use that kind of borrowing for, teaser mortgages, or even 30 year mortgages at 6.75%? Very risk spreads, and almost a blind bet that rates will go back down. They've been wrong all year.
