“We got a big problem”

- George W. Bush, September, 2008

More Signs of the Times• 2 year bond falling due to high demand fearing long range

“deflation.”• 30Yr dropped below 4% • More recently, the 3 month T ’Bill dropped to zero yield;• S&P - probably the most watched indicator in the world since it’s a

broader measure than the Dow – sank to 13 year low;• Dow below $8k since 2003• Citi (after taking its SIV’s onto it’s balance sheet) still losing value by

the buckets, rumored to layoff another 52,000 employees. Stock below $4.

• GM at $3.06, Ford at $1.03• Feds seizes Downey and PFF• More recently BofA announced a layoff affecting 32,000 workers.

Signs of the Time

• Sax 5th 3Q loss worse than expected;• Home Depot 3Q down 30% from

expectations – actually down 8% versus expected 5% decline;

• Circuit city – BK

?9. Can You Name This Man?

OK Just In Case You Were Sleeping

There’s a man lose …

… with a wooden Stake!

… And a hammer!

.

Secretary of The Treasury, Henry M. Paulson, Jr.

BUT… he’s from Goldman Sachs

The ^ Solution

Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008.

First

The ^ Solution

Term

Asset-Backed Securities

Loan Facility

Second

Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008

• Authorizes Treasury to spend $700B to – Purchase distressed assets– Make capital injections into banks

• Originally 3 pages when it started in the House;

• Became 110 pages by the Senate;• After another $150B in “unrelated

provisions” it became 451 pages by the time it was signed;

EESA of 2008

• Managed by the Office of Financial Stability within the Treasury Dept.

• Consults with:– Bd of Gov’s of Federal Rsrv. – FDIC’– Comptroller of the Currency– Director of Office of Thrift Supervision– Secretary of HUD

Actions thus Far

Allowed:• Immediate access to

$250B• Additional access to

$100B with Presidents Authorization

• For the Final $350B, President must notify Congress. They have 15 days to stop it by legislation. President can veto. Congress can override.

Done:• Money dispersed to 87

banks in 30 states;• Some measure of

secrecy of any troubled banks;

• Tres Secy to develop Foreclosure assist plan

• Svcrs encouraged to do loan mods and HOPE.

Creates TARP ?

To purchase toxic assets so as to free up banks to lend and re-open the credit markets.

Pro’s: market intervention is vital to prevent further erosion in credit markets;

Con’s: Problems created by excess credit and debt are not solved by a massive infusion of excess capital and debt;

Think of it like standing at the top of a sliding board with a smoldering fire underneath: – Pro’s want to go down on the slide side, legs first; – Con’s think investors should jump off the top of the staircase,

head first. – And Main street only knows that parks are where the bullies

are…

So What Do the Economists Think?

??

?

?

??

Economists Seem to Have Four Concerns

1. Fairness: this seems to be a subsidy to Investors at taxpayers expense;

2. Ambiguity: Mission and oversight are unclear including which assets and at what terms; Oversight and accountability is also unclear;

3. Long Term Effect: Gov’t intervention in free markets fundamentally weakens them; Exposes US to global scrutiny;

4. But Do Something : There is widespread agreement that further erosion could have caused “massive systemic failure of global financial markets.”

What if your

them?

That Brings us to the ^ Solution

and mortgage credit;• Restore confidence in stock

market by offering support in the asset-backed markets (Credit cards, SBA loans, auto and student loans)

Allowed Are:• $200B in new Gts• $100B in direct debt purch

Fannie, Freddie & FHLB• $500B of MBS to Fannie,

Freddie and Ginnie

Actions Taken• Has Obama’s support• Film at Eleven – more to

follow;

Second

Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility, TALF, 11/25/08

Consider a microcosm for a Second and let’s make it

personal…

So a Bailout was probably necessary.

Now what?

Worth Watching

The Fundamental parts worth watching include:• Secretary Paulson’s long-bridled control and

shifting attention;• The TARP targets – how much is main street

versus wall street;• Those Banks blessed with portions and their use

of the funds;• Current AND New Administration

announcements & hints.

Watching the Moving Parts

The Original intent was:• Purchase distressed

assets;• Make capital injections

into banks;

11/14 update:• Stock Purchase of

financial firms;• Fed financing for

investors in securities back by consumer debt such as car loans, student loans and credit cards;

• Big Three Discussions• Subsidies to mitigate

mortgage foreclosure;

New Foreclosures

Nationwide numbers were 2,795,420 new filings and 479,461sales YTD through July.

Through October, 2008

The Latest

Senate Banking Committee Chairman, Chris Dodd says Congress may have to reconsider some parts of the financial plan it approved.

Ford, Chrysler and GM seek $25B to “retool.” Question: Does trading the corp. jet for a PR road rally show they understand Main St sentiment? Question: Why has this become a political play when the election is safely behind us?
