High yields will sure cause a lot more credit implosion, not less. In a scenario of the dollar meltdown (dollar craters, yields go up, credit implodes) they can really do absolutely nothing. Printing will cause more dollar cratering, yields skyrocketing, and more credit defaults. That's my favorite scenario, given the involvement of the Fed in the markets, but I don't see it happening just yet - yields on LT treasuries are still extremely low, and the dollar is hanging in there. This scenario is certainly the favorite in modern times for punishing reckless Central Bankers -g- The first example was probably John Law?
