Unfortunately, no mention of the dynamics of time & volume in that article. The bailout only makes sense if you account for that. If there is no effect, than the bailout is a pure scam. I don't believe for a second that there is no effect. The claim is that by reducing the volume/unit time you affect the asset price, something which IMO is absolutely correct. f Mr. Paulson pays the market rate — whatever that is — that presumably would not be enough to persuade banks to sell. Otherwise, they would have sold already. For the plan to work, Treasury has to pay a premium.
