The Economist on the next financial crisis

The Economist joins the chorus warning that another financial crisis could be in the cards. They offer three reasons:

  1. There is too much lending against real estate and not enough to businesses that generate real value.
  2. The U.S. dollar is still the world’s reserve currency, but political pressure may prevent the Federal Reserve from flooding the world with dollars in a future crisis like it has in the past.
  3. The Euro is still dangerously unstable.
