That is just hope. Just like mortgage bankers were assuming that a little higher rate on subprime will make the risk go away. True in principle, but wrong pricing of risk has unravelled that market.

There will be many caught on the wrong side of the bets and their creditors will suffer.

I see some pain but no panic on the mail street yet.
