1. The document discusses the impacts of tightened lending standards and increased savings rates in the US following the financial crisis. While prudent on an individual level, some argue this will slow economic recovery by reducing credit availability and consumer spending.
2. Lenders have tightened standards due to high default rates, while individuals have increased savings and paid down debt in response to job losses and economic uncertainty. However, experts want more lending and spending to stimulate growth.
3. The debate centers around whether continued conservative lending and spending habits will prolong the recession or lead to sustainable recovery. Both sides make reasonable arguments about the role of credit in fueling economic activity in the short and long term.

AMERICA IS NOT BROKE! Four Multi-Trillion Dollar Paths to A Thriving America The unsustainability of the American economy is as familiar as the newscycle. There is no money for social programs, no money to run the government, no money to cut taxes, and above all, we have to cut, cut, cut. But, what if it's not true? Instead of familiar complaints about the national debt, leading to just slicing a shrinking economic pie differently, or worse, to Austerity Economics, the reality is that we already have all the wealth we could ever need. The tried and proven proposals in America Is Not Broke would guarantee America's prosperity, fairness, democracy, and economic and ecological sustainability.

Discussion 1The Federal Reserves were using practices that t.docxduketjoy27252
Discussion 1
The Federal Reserves were using practices that they haven't used since the Great Depression. “First, the Fed extended credit to nonbank financial firms, which was the first time since the Great Depression that entities outside of the Federal Reserve System could borrow directly from the Fed”(Amacher Pate 2012). They did this so that all the small firms didn't fall because of the economy. “The Fed also purchased assets and loans from firms deemed "too big to fail." The purchases of mortgage-backed securities, loans ranging from millions to billions to financial firms like American International Group, and guarantees of the assets of Citigroup and Bank of America were all seen as unconventional practices of the Fed”(Amacher Pate 2012). That way they would have the money to used to help stabilize their financial state.
To support the firms that the Federal Reserve thought was to big to fail, they passed the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. “On July 21, 2010, President Barack Obama signed the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act into law, which permanently raises the current standard maximum deposit insurance amount (SMDIA) to $250,000”(Amacher Pate 2012). This way when there will be less likely for the banks to be in a crisis because they would have more money to work with.
I think they did what they thought they had to do to keep the economy from collapsing. If everything started falling apart and they couldn't come up with a solution, they would have bigger problems to deal with than unconventional practices.

The Federal Reserve was established to provide bank safety. Subsequently, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) was created to provide protection to bank depositors from bank failures. According to text, “it is important to allow unsuccessful firms to fail and leave the industry if the market system is to function effectively” (Amacher, 2012, p. 343). In response to the numerous bank failures, the FDIC implemented several changes. First, it mandated that all accounts that are not interest bearing to be insured in full. Banks were using these funds to issue high interest loans, while paying minimal interest to funds that were deposited. Next, the Federal Reserve System was divided into 12 districts. This method ensured that control of the banks was not consolidated at a national level. At this point, the Federal Reserve can also adjust the interest rates to encourage or discourage banks from lending money. Also, Congress passed the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. This was the response for organizations who were deemed “too big to fail.” This law required banks to have a high ratios of capital reserves, as well as reduce their penchant for risk tasking.

Guided Response: Review the posts of your classmates and respond to at least two of your classmates by agreeing or disagreeing with their opinions on whether the Federal Reserve actions were necessary to avoid the collapse of the financial system.
Peer Response #1: AM
At the height of the Great Recession, the Fed made changes to the FDIC to prevent the same kind of loss from happening again. “First, all accounts that do not earn interest are insured infull, regardless of the balance” (Amacher & Pate, 2012). Followed by the increase in the SMDIA to the amount of $250,000. This law (Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and ConsumerProtection Act ) was enacted by President Obama as a permanent fixture to the banking system.
The Fed took actions the were considered unconventional for the large financial institutions that were considered nonbanks. “Too Big To Fail” means these companies are too important the economy to let fail or go bankrupt. In an effort to keep these institutions from closing, the Fed offered bailout programs.
The actions taken by the Fed were thought necessary to keep from further hindering the U.S. economy. President of Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, Neel KashKari, said, “We had a choice in 2008: Spend taxpayer money to stabilize large banks, or don’t, and potentially trigger many trillions of additional costs to society” (Kashkari, 2016). The failure of these companies could have harmed homeowners, businesses, and families across the U.S. much more than the bailouts that were given. Many believe that these banks should be broken up because they are too big and taxpayer bailouts should not be required to keep them afloat. “[…] there is no question that the.

US Economic Outlook - Being Decided - M Capital Group August 2021.pdfpchutichetpong
The U.S. economy is continuing its impressive recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and not slowing down despite re-occurring bumps. The U.S. savings rate reached its highest ever recorded level at 34% in April 2020 and Americans seem ready to spend. The sectors that had been hurt the most by the pandemic specifically reduced consumer spending, like retail, leisure, hospitality, and travel, are now experiencing massive growth in revenue and job openings.
Could this growth lead to a “Roaring Twenties”? As quickly as the U.S. economy contracted, experiencing a 9.1% drop in economic output relative to the business cycle in Q2 2020, the largest in recorded history, it has rebounded beyond expectations. This surprising growth seems to be fueled by the U.S. government’s aggressive fiscal and monetary policies, and an increase in consumer spending as mobility restrictions are lifted. Unemployment rates between June 2020 and June 2021 decreased by 5.2%, while the demand for labor is increasing, coupled with increasing wages to incentivize Americans to rejoin the labor force. Schools and businesses are expected to fully reopen soon. In parallel, vaccination rates across the country and the world continue to rise, with full vaccination rates of 50% and 14.8% respectively.
However, it is not completely smooth sailing from here. According to M Capital Group, the main risks that threaten the continued growth of the U.S. economy are inflation, unsettled trade relations, and another wave of Covid-19 mutations that could shut down the world again. Have we learned from the past year of COVID-19 and adapted our economy accordingly?
“In order for the U.S. economy to continue growing, whether there is another wave or not, the U.S. needs to focus on diversifying supply chains, supporting business investment, and maintaining consumer spending,” says Grace Feeley, a research analyst at M Capital Group.
While the economic indicators are positive, the risks are coming closer to manifesting and threatening such growth. The new variants spreading throughout the world, Delta, Lambda, and Gamma, are vaccine-resistant and muddy the predictions made about the economy and health of the country. These variants bring back the feeling of uncertainty that has wreaked havoc not only on the stock market but the mindset of people around the world. MCG provides unique insight on how to mitigate these risks to possibly ensure a bright economic future.
