19/9/2008 13:13 | US banking bailout... I would never bet on it but I'd say that they're worried about a market crash. As a result it sounds like they are panicking. But I cannot see where the Treasury & Fed are going to get all this intervention money from? How much money are foreign central banks likely to give, how much can taxpayers pay? And if the presses start printing USD, hyperinflation will probably lead to a crash eventually anyway. This crisis is much larger than any previous crisis, at least ten times the S&L crisis. The Treasury & Fed wouldn't do this unless they were seriously worried about a banking crash & market crash. | briarberry | |

17/9/2008 14:59 | Rothbard, "A History of Money and Banking in the United States" "The Fed tried frantically to inflate after the 1929 crash, including massive open market purchases and heavy loans to banks. These attempts succeeded in driving interest rates down, but they foundered on the rock of massive distrust of the banks. Furthermore, bank fears of runs as well as bankruptcies by their borrowers led them to pile up excess reserves in a manner not seen before or since the 1930s." - Rothbard, "The Mystery of Banking" "[T]he inflationary policies of [President Herbert] Hoover and [Federal Reserve Board Governor Eugene] Meyer proved to be counterproductive. American citizens lost confidence in the banks and demanded cash Federal Reserve notes for their deposits (currency in circulation rising by $122 million by the end of July), while foreigners lost confidence in the dollar and demanded gold (the gold stock in the United States falling by $380 million in this period). In addition, the banks, for the first time, did not fully lend out their new reserves, and accumulated excess reserves these excess reserves rising to 10 percent of total reserves by mid-year. A common explanation claims that business, during a depression, lowered its demand for loans, so that pumping new reserves into the banks was only "pushing on a string." But this popular view overlooks the fact that banks can always use their excess reserves to buy existing securities; they don't have to wait for new loan requests. Why didn't they do so? Because the banks were whipsawed between two forces. On the one hand, bank failures had increased dramatically during the depression. Whereas during the 1920s, in a typical year 700 banks failed, with deposits totaling $170 million, since the depression struck, 17,000 banks had been failing per year, with a total of $1.08 billion in deposits. This increase in bank failures could give any bank pause, especially since all the banks knew in their hearts that, as fractional reserve banks, none of them could withstand determined and massive runs upon them by their depositors. Second, just at a time when bank loans were becoming risky, the cheap-money policy of the Fed had driven down interest returns from bank loans, thus weakening banks' incentive to bear risk. Hence the piling up of excess reserves. The more that Hoover and the Fed tried to inflate, the more worried the market and the public became about the dollar, the more gold flowed out of the banks, and the more deposits were redeemed for cash." - Rothbard, "A History of Money and Banking in the United States" | briarberry | |

17/9/2008 00:25 | Reserve Primary Money Fund Falls Below $1 a Share (Update3) By Christopher Condon Sept. 16 (Bloomberg) -- Reserve Primary Fund became the first money-market fund in 14 years to expose investors to losses after writing off $785 million of debt issued by bankrupt Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. The fund, whose assets plunged more 60 percent to $23 billion in the past two days, said the Lehman losses forced the net value of its assets below $1 a share, known as breaking the buck. Primary Reserve, the oldest money fund in the nation, fell to 97 cents a share and redemptions were suspended for as long as seven days. Money-market funds are considered the safest investments after cash and bank deposits, and Reserve Primary's losses come as confidence in financial markets has been shaken by the collapse of subprime mortgages, the failure of 11 U.S. commercial banks and Lehman's bankruptcy yesterday. The only other money-market fund to break the buck was the $82.2 million Community Bankers Mutual Fund in Denver, which liquidated in 1994 because of investments in interest-rate derivatives. | briarberry | |
