I know M1 growth has been rapid, and front rates are as low as they can go, and fiscal stimulus, etc. but all this comes in the face of many trillions in destroyed wealth from asset price deflation, and the only way any of that stimulus can counteract that force is through the multiplier. But what multiplier do we have if banks aren't lending (and I don't think they should be if it's not profitable, they need negative rates...)?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
