GZ, short answer is that this situation is not going to have a lasting effect on the stock indices imo. All the while these problems exist there are solutions in action. The doom pundits are offering you only one side of the story, the other side is why hasn't the worst happened? Because fixes are put in place by Central Banks. This buys time for the boosting of resources from other countries and in some cases companies to overcome the problem. Call it a rolling problem, with just as many fixes coming as problems come up. It can go on and on. Look how many crisis we have had over the past 50 years, and look where the stock market is now, compared to then. You may not like how its done, and I know a lot of people hate the Fed, but that's how the world works and why we are still moving along and not in the new dark ages. Now the ideal situation would be to have balanced budgets from these poorly managed countries, for instance, like ours right now under this spend crazy administration. Basically, the world needs to push back the creeping socialism that never has enough and get back to supporting more free enterprise. Socialist influence on governments got way ahead of many countries abililty to support it. It now has to retract and the economy expand. I think is going to happen for us, beginning in January, empowering the solutions to a higher degree. Banks can borrow remember at 30 bp and get 2% on a 10 yr note. That's a great return. They stop loaning to you and me for awhile and get well arbitraging the Treasury Market. This is an old CB trick,and its been a huge booster for banks when they get in trouble since I can remember. They build reserves and once they reach their capital goals, start loaning the money out and increase eps. And its not just our CB doing this, the Europeans are too. This is just a tiny example of what is going on to cure the problems that seem so insurmountable.
