Has the bailout already failed?, por Paul Krugman:
OK, I know that’s premature. And I place no weight at all on the fact that the Dow plunged after the vote.
But it is interesting that short-term Treasury yields are down — only 0.13% on one-month — suggesting that the flight to safety continues unabated. Against this, John Jansen reports some signs that money markets are unfreezing, slightly.
We’ll learn more next week. But I have a prediction: well before January 20, Congress will be asked to vote on bailout 2.0.
Krugman é um dos principais economistas Democratas que andou a defender a tese de que "o plano de Bush é mau, mas é melhor que nada". Será que já está a mudar de ideias?
