Too Big to Fail 11-10-11Mar 15, 2012
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act was aimed at correcting a number of problems relating to the market woes of the last few years. Among other things, it specifically sought to address issues pertaining to the idea that some entities were too big and intertwined with the economy to be allowed to fail. Our panel will discuss the legal (and potential constitutional) issues coming out of Dodd-Frank. In passing the act, has Congress overstepped its bounds? Will Dodd-Frank succeed in identifying the entities that are "too big to fail," and will it be effective in regulating them in a way that will prevent their failure? This panel was featured as Showcase Panel I at the 2011 National Lawyers Convention on November 10, 2011. Showcase Panel I: Too Big to Fail 9:15 am -- 11:15 am Grand Ballroom --Mr. Dean Baker, Co-Director, Center for Economic and Policy Research --Mr. H. Rodgin Cohen, Partner, Sullivan & Cromwell LLP --Mr. Paul Singer, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Elliott Management Corporation --Hon. Peter J. Wallison, Arthur F. Burns Fellow in Financial Policy Studies, American Enterprise Institute, former General Counsel, US Department of the Treasury, and former White House Counsel --Moderator: Hon. Diane S. Sykes, US Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit Mayflower Hotel Washington, DC

A Too-Big-To-Fail Whale Tale, a Lousy Jobs Report, and "Lazy Methodology"May 12, 2012
Follow us @ twitter.com twitter.com Welcome to Capital Account. Last week we told you about the "London Whale" - the London-based Bruno Iksil of JP Morgan Chase. He has reportedly amassed derivative positions so large that he's driving price moves in the $10 trillion market for credit derivative indexes. Is this yet another sign that too big to fail banks are taking outsized risks with federally insured money? Would they take this huge positions that have the ability to drive price movements in this fashion if they didn't know that their very existence was subsidized and that they had an implicit backstop from the central banks? Does this make the case for the Volcker Rule, and if not, what does it make the case for? We will speak to author and financial commentator Karl Denninger about it during the show. And US stocks fell today after the S and P closed out its worth week of 2012. Media reports are saying it is the reaction to a bad jobs report. We'll back up and look at the big unemployment picture with Karl Denninger, and get his take, as he has been writing about this since last week. And speaking of economic problems, 60 minutes ran a piece this weekend that we took a little offense at, namely the perpetuation of this myth that Greeks are "lazy." In one part of the erroneous segment, the reporter claimed that "in the past, if Greece found its accounts overdrawn it would simply print more money in order to accommodate the relaxed Greek lifestyle." This is ABSURD. It ...
