Bloomberg.com: WorldwideFed's Rosengren Calls Delay in Housing Recovery a `Surprise'
By Anthony Massucci
April 7 (Bloomberg) -- Boston Federal Reserve Bank President Eric Rosengren said the delay in a rebound of U.S. home sales continues to ``surprise.''
...
Rosengren said it's ``confounding'' that housing shows little sign of recovery after the Fed's six interest-rate reductions since September. Fed officials are in the eighth month of a credit crisis that began with rising delinquencies on subprime mortgages.
There's also the possibility that he's made his money by understanding the bond market, not economic policy, and that he's enriched himself by taking a few basis points of a big chunk of money while being the bond equivalent of a coin-flipping monkey. He'd be more like Bogle or Lynch than like Volker or Greenspan, and his writings are more marketing than post-doc thesis work."I've had trouble understanding his economic-policy logic" Nords
That I don't doubt, he being a billionaire, having made his money understanding these things.
