Plot a flight for quality in reverse and you have it. In a typical flight for quality situation, a central bank doesn't have liquidity to put into the market.

It needs to go to the IMF, the FED for countries. The IMF provides the liquidity. Te liquidity is just an assurance that of needed be, the liquidity can be drawn.

What happened in the past weeks is that the money was not there, once it people demanded it, the banks need to get funds to stop a bank crisis.

The remittances were not a text book flight for quality. It was a move from a country to another in a steady basis. It was most unnoticed.

Only after 911, the international finances institutions started tracking that flow and it became known its value

Yes!

THE CURRENT SUB-PRIME mess in the United States was primarily caused by the resetting of interest rates at a higher level of the popular adjustable rate mortgages
