CONCLUSIONS
Ludwig von Mises: “The dearth of credit which marks the crisis is caused not by a contraction but by the abstention of further credit expansion.” Central bankers have become hostage to inflated asset markets! Will tight money -whenever necessary - be implemented again?
A short lived “crack-up” boom in 2010 driven by expansionary fiscal and monetary policies is a possibility. How sustainable will it be?
The current crisis has failed to clean up the system and policy responses are the same that were applied post 2001.
Sovereign defaults are likely to soar in the next few years.
The final crisis has yet to come! The economic, social, and geopolitical clock will then be permanently reset.

There is no means of avoiding a final collapse of a boom brought about by credit expansion. The alternative is only whether the crisis should come sooner as a result of a voluntary abandonment of further credit expansion, or later as a final and total catastrophe of the currency system involved.
