Follow on Google News | Million-Dollar Plan to Bail Out Wall Street Would Keep Recession (or Depression) At BayFinancial advisor and A Few Dollars More blogger William Schmick says Wall Street bailout will keep recession--or depression--from happening.
"Both sides of the Congressional aisle agreed on a frame work for the multi- billion dollar financial markets rescue on Thursday afternoon. There will be further haggling on the details but it looks as if the deal will pass–it better," said Schmick, a financial advisor and Vice President for Dion Money Management. The lifeblood of business is lending– overnight, weekly, monthly or yearly loans–is what provides everything we produce, consume and save. "Without lending, everything stops. Last week the world stopped. Lenders were afraid to lend. Borrowers, no matter how credit worthy, could not borrow," said Schmick. "If this credit freeze continued it would have ushered in a huge recession if not an outright second depression." Schmick points out that there will be ramifications. The entire free markets model of the last fifty years will be re-examined while the unquestioned economic leadership of the United States since the end of World War II may now be in doubt he said. "An over-haul and up-dating of regulation is certain. What impact this will have on our financial institutions and the way we do business going forward will provide additional challenges and opportunities," To read more of Schmick's posts, visit http://www.afewdollarsmore.com or contact him for additional financial advice.
