    So from what I understand, a structured investment vehicle is really like a hedge fund in the housing market, only it derives its value from home equity, meaning that people basically traded securities of which the only real value was the market price of the collateral and the dept owed by the borrower, which he/she may or may not be able to pay? …If that’s correct than I don’t see how it’s possible not to expect a crisis from such a ridiculous investment vehicle.

    Hey Coriolanus,
    The thing is the FED actually does not “set” interest rates the way most people think.

    Basically since they are so big they buy and sell in the open market, causing changes in the money supply, which then causes changes in the interest rates.

    This is important because at some times we need lower interest rates than other, like right now for example, and the market may not dictate this at the proper times.

    There are also about 500 other reasons but I’m out of comment room!

    I have a question,why do we have to have an institution setting the interest rate rather than leaving it to the market,it seems to me that manipulating the interest rate by the fed is what got us in trouble to start with.I think it is impossible for anybody or any institution for that matter given the size and perplexity of our ecconomy to predict the best interest rate at any moment

    can anyone help me?

    from what im aware banks took assets off balance sheets to avoid having to hold capital.

    for that to happen it needs to be a true sale rite?

    does this not mean the assets no longer belongs to the bank? how come it comes back onto thier balance sheet and gets written down??

    Hello David, why did the Federal Reserve start to raise interest rates in late 2004?

    The Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000 or CFMA (H.R. 5660 and S.3283) is United States federal legislation which repealed the Shad-Johnson jurisdictional accord, which had banned single-stock futures in 1982. The legislation also provided certainty that products offered by banking institutions would not be regulated as futures contracts.

    You stated that as a result of the subprime mortgage crisis a liquidity crisis arose. Wasn’t it more of a solvency problem?

    Feds lost control over the Fed Rate, according to this video:

    Another video states that the Feds somehow lost control over the Federal Rate, and that’s what blew things up.

    He omitted the fact that bad loans were insured in order to get a higher rating to make them look good; and insured again by speculators that did not even own the investment. Unregulated and perfectly legal insurance fraud (misrepresentation and casino gambing).

    I was wondering the exact same thing. I’m no expert, but I think they do that to contract the supply of money in circulation, which in turn helps to control inflation and price increases. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong!

    I say we remove Geithner and Mary Schapiro and appoint David Waring as the head of both the Treasury Department and the SEC.

    Good man, many thanks – any ideas as to what can be learned from this fiasco and what legal checks can be put in place to avoid such a thing happening again?
