Jerome Powell’s 60 Minutes Interview: No Depression & Offers Congress MMT Financing?




from WallStForMainSt

Jason talks about the Jerome Powell 60 Minutes interview that aired on Sunday. Watch the full 13 minute TV interview and read the transcripts here: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/full-tra…

Despite saying how GDP could easily shrink by 20% to 30%, and unemployment could be at least 20% to 25% Powell was adamant that the US is NOT in an economic depression!

Powell says GDP could shrink more than 30%, but he doesn’t see another Depression https://www.cnbc.com/2020/05/17/powel…

Also, Powell took the time during the 60 Minutes interview to offer Congress to lend Congress even more $$ to spend. “If we lend it, you can spend it!” This is for all intents and purposes MMT. Or at least MMT Lite as some financial professionals are calling it.
