re: questions for economists
Questions for any economists on the board.
1. Does a stronger US economy mean a stronger $US? 2. Does a stronger $US mean that the trade imbalance increases further? 3. Does a strong US economy mean an increase in credit? Or perhaps Bernanke just prints more money? 4. Does a strong US economy indicate that housing will continue to boom? Apparently there is plenty of stock? How on credit? Houses are not moving now so perhaps with a stronger economy citizens can go out and start purchasing at unaffordable levels with interest only 100 year loans.
I am not an economist but I believe that Bernanke can only make one decision regarding interest rates. He needs to make a tough call even with congressional elections coming up. If he doesn't the US will become a basket case.
