Alan Greenspan on default

Post by foglifter »

This is a short fragment of an interview with Greenspan. I'd recommend it to those having hard time with pouring 25% of their PP money into LTTs. Looks like Fed bosses become more open in expressing their views when they leave the office:

Love that clip!  The look on the young guy's face is priceless.

A great reminder for why we hold LLT, and gold for the matter.

I think the young guy is Austin Goolsbee, Chairman of the Council of Economic Advisors and a member of Obamas cabinet.
