• Fannie and Freddie Balloon Balance Sheets– $3.2 Trillion in debt – sold everywhere in the world
• OFHEO Undermanned and Under Funded– Campaign contributions buy elected officials
• Rating Agencies Fail to Do Their Jobs• Lenders and Wall Street Create New Products• Borrowers Take the Deal

12 Reasons for Optimism
1. A broad rally in stocks, confirmed and continuing into this week and led by the beaten-down financials.
2. A surprising surge in housing starts to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 583,000 units.
3. A jump in retail sales led by autos, cash for clunkers
4. A return to profitability at several major banks, including Citigroup, Bank of America and JPMorgan.
5. A doubling in the obscure but important Baltic Dry Index, a key indicator of global trade flows.
6. An upwardly sloping yield curve, which Fed research suggests all but ensures a rebound by year-end.
7. A Housing Affordability Index that has hit an all-time high.
8. A two-month improvement in wholesale used-car prices, measured by the Manheim Index.
9. A rise in Monster's Employment Index in February, suggesting a turn in the job market may be around the corner.
10. A sharp increase in the money supply, as measured by M2 and M1. Weekly M2 growth has averaged 10.1% year-over-year since the start of 2009, while M1 has grown at a 14.6% rate.
11. A rally in the Index of Leading Indicators.
12. Data show nearly $14 trillion in liquidity on the sidelines of the markets, ready to boost consumer spending, credit growth or further stock market gains.
