Fed Fischer's Complete & Bizarre Nonsense: Oil Price Collapse “Making Everybody Better Off”
Wednesday, December 3, 2014 12:18
% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.
“I'm not very worried,” explains Fed Vice Chairman Stan Fischer in a very Bernanke-”contained”-like nonchalence about the total collapse of oil prices (and US oil producer stocks).
Sharply lower oil prices will boost spending and aid U.S. growth, Fischer stated in a mind-blowingly naive speech for the 2nd-most-important-monetary-policy-maker-in-the-world, adding that lower oil prices were “a phenomenon that’s making everybody better off.”
We don’t understand his ignorance: as we noted earlier, Fischer is talking about money that would otherwise also have been spent, only on gas. There is no additional money, so where’s the boost? This is just complete and bizarre nonsense …. http://www.zerohedge.com
