Of the maxims of orthodox finance none, surely, is more anti-social than the fetish of liquidity, the doctrine of that it is a positive virtue on the part of investment institutions to concentrate their resources upon the holding of 'liquid' securities. It forgets that there is no such thing as liquidity of investment for the community as a whole. ~ John Maynard Keynes
Liquidity quotes by John Maynard Keynes
Five hundred years ago the notoriously savvy Henry VIII discovered an elegant way to solve both his theological problems and his personal liquidity crisis - he dissolved the monasteries and nicked all their land. Since the principle of any rich person who wants to stay rich is, never give anything away unless you absolutely have to, the land has stayed with Crown ever since. ~ Ben Aaronovitch
Liquidity quotes by Ben Aaronovitch
From my point of view, the American financial system - including banks and investment banks - is far safer because of capital and liquidity requirements. Despite all the turbulence so far this year, I don't think anyone's questioning our system. And that, obviously, is a good thing. ~ Jamie Dimon
Liquidity quotes by Jamie Dimon
Corruption,' Jordan Belfort believes, 'is endemic to human being. I mean, even men in monasteries - where enticement is hard to come by – even men in those circumstances have sex with other men and abuse children. Look at the Catholic Church! Man is an imperfect animal and he is corruptible, okay? And in finance, the liquid nature of the market makes corruption very easy. On Wall Street, this liquidity is so in your face -' he suddenly grits his teeth - 'that if you have even the slightest predisposition to the dark side, you become corrupted. In addition to which, those attracted to Wall Street have a predisposition to greed. ~ Antonella Gambotto-Burke
Liquidity quotes by Antonella Gambotto-Burke
There has to be a large number of people and routes that are lined up together. One part is liquidity and the other part is product - there's a lot that can go wrong. ~ Travis Kalanick
Liquidity quotes by Travis Kalanick
The reason I am so negative about the Federal Reserve's policies is that they only target core inflation and argue that they can't identify bubbles, but when each bubble bursts, they flood the system with liquidity that brings about unintended consequences. ~ Marc Faber
Liquidity quotes by Marc Faber
The event concept was sparked from a shared observation amongst these leading lifestyle brands that the economic rebound has spurred greater liquidity into real estate, the stock market is setting new heights and consumers are generally stepping out more for luxury goods and services. After many years of pulling back, it was fun to see guests flirting with temptation, whether that was a new home, a new car, a new look or just to learn more about the trends. Others were happy to take in all the action. ~ Andrea Savage
Liquidity quotes by Andrea Savage
One may not doubt that, somehow Good Shall come of Water and of Mud; And sure, the reverent eye must see A purpose in Liquidity. ~ Rupert Brooke
Liquidity quotes by Rupert Brooke
I worked for twenty-some years with no capital, so I never had any liquidity. Managing my loans alone wouldn't do it, and working hard twenty-four hours a day seven days a week alone wouldn't do it. You have to be properly capitalized. ~ Bob McNair
Liquidity quotes by Bob McNair
As you know, in the latter part of 2008 and early 2009, the Federal Reserve took extraordinary steps to provide liquidity and support credit market functioning, including the establishment of a number of emergency lending facilities and the creation or extension of currency swap agreements with 14 central banks around the world. ~ Ben Bernanke
Liquidity quotes by Ben Bernanke
The Central Bank should have a permanent window for discounting high quality securities where banks could go and discount these. It gives peace of mind to the banks. In the absence of this facility, what banks tend to do is to keep a liquidity cushion for emergency requirements. This is a very expensive way of managing liquidity. ~ Abdul Aziz Al Ghurair
Liquidity quotes by Abdul Aziz Al Ghurair
To be sure, the provision of liquidity alone can by no means solve the problems of credit risk and credit losses; but it can reduce liquidity premiums, help restore the confidence of investors, and thus promote stability. ~ Ben Bernanke
Liquidity quotes by Ben Bernanke
Liquidity. When an executive said his bank had plenty of liquidity it always meant that it didn't. At ~ Michael Lewis
Liquidity quotes by Michael Lewis
We really believe in the earnings. We're very proud that often we do well in the down market. But you know, there are some markets where they just lose liquidity, like 2001, 2008. ~ Louis Navellier
Liquidity quotes by Louis Navellier
I think the notion that liquidity of tradable common stock is a great contributor to capitalism is mostly twaddle. The liquidity gives us these crazy booms, so it has as many problems as virtues. ~ Charlie Munger
Liquidity quotes by Charlie Munger
The Algo Wars were leaving a path of destruction in their wake. "HFT algos reduce the value of resting orders and increase the value of how fast orders can be placed and cancelled," wrote Nanex researcher Eric Hunsader. "This results in the illusion of liquidity. We can't understand why this is allowed to continue, because at the core, it is pure manipulation. ~ Scott Patterson
Liquidity quotes by Scott Patterson
The Fed has gone about as if the problem is a shortage of liquidity. That is not the basic problem. The basic problem for the markets is that uncertainty that the balance sheets of financial firms are credible.
-Anna J. Schwartz interviewed in the Wall Street Journal, October 18-19, 2008. ~ John Brian Taylor
Liquidity quotes by John Brian Taylor
Near the top of the market, investors are extraordinarily optimistic because they've seen mostly higher prices for a year or two. The sell-offs witnessed during that span were usually brief. Even when they were severe, the market bounced back quickly and always rose to loftier levels. At the top, optimism is king, speculation is running wild, stocks carry high price/earnings ratios, and liquidity has evaporated. A small rise in interest rates can easily be the catalyst for triggering a bear market at that point. ~ Martin Zweig
Liquidity quotes by Martin Zweig
One way to ease liquidity for banks is that the government can buy all highly rated securities held by the banks. Every single bank in the U.A.E. has some sovereign debts in their portfolios. I am not asking them to buy any junk bonds, rather the high quality U.A.E. government debt. ~ Abdul Aziz Al Ghurair
Liquidity quotes by Abdul Aziz Al Ghurair
When I hear complaints about less liquidity, remember there is such a thing as too much liquidity. ~ Paul Volcker
Liquidity quotes by Paul Volcker
JP Morgan always has higher capital liquidity, that is partially to make up for mistakes and problems and obviously it's a tough economy. We support an oversight committee, we supported some of the compensation, new compensation rules, though we already follow most of them. We support a lot of it. ~ Jamie Dimon
Liquidity quotes by Jamie Dimon
We invite American companies looking to raise capital to list on the Bahrain Stock Exchange. The region has a liquidity oversupply approximating $1 trillion and this pool of capital can be tapped into by creative American companies. The next Facebook may very well get funded on the BSE. ~ Hamad Bin Isa Al Khalifa
Liquidity quotes by Hamad Bin Isa Al Khalifa
Hedge funds, private equity and venture capital funds have played an important role in providing liquidity to our financial system and improving the efficiency of capital markets. But as their role has grown, so have the risks they pose. ~ Jack Reed
Liquidity quotes by Jack Reed
Among other objectives, liquidity guidelines must take into account the risks that inadequate liquidity planning by major financial firms pose for the broader financial system, and they must ensure that these firms do not become excessively reliant on liquidity support from the central bank. ~ Ben Bernanke
Liquidity quotes by Ben Bernanke
The monetary policy of the United States has a major impact on global liquidity and capital flows and therefore, the liquidity of the U.S. dollar should be kept at a reasonable and stable level. ~ Hu Jintao
Liquidity quotes by Hu Jintao
Our liquidity is fine. As a matter of fact, it's better than fine. It's strong. ~ Kenneth Lay
Liquidity quotes by Kenneth Lay
Since the 1970S, financial innova­tions such as the securitisation of mortgage debt and the spreading of investment risks through the creation of derivative markets, all tacitly (and now, as we see, actually) backed by state power, have permitted a huge flow of excess liquidity into all facets of urbanisa­tion and built environment construction worldwide. ~ David Harvey
Liquidity quotes by David Harvey
When making their loans, the bankers should have thought more carefully about how easily they could call back the money - essentially a question about the liquidity of the loan. ~ Niall Ferguson
Liquidity quotes by Niall Ferguson
Housing associations have fingered the fact that they cannot use their assets as liquidity due to Bank of England rules unlike their continental equivalents. This has emerged to be one of the main bottlenecks to getting investment going in the U.K. It is a Bank of England issue. ~ Vince Cable
Liquidity quotes by Vince Cable
capital, having considerably more liquidity than water, slid ~ Kim Stanley Robinson
Liquidity quotes by Kim Stanley Robinson
bear in mind when trying to compare housing with other forms of capital asset. The first is depreciation. Stocks do not wear out and require new roofs; houses do. The second is liquidity. As assets, houses are a great deal more expensive to convert into cash than stocks. The third is volatility. ~ Niall Ferguson
Liquidity quotes by Niall Ferguson
Nevertheless, if we contemplate a society with a somewhat stable wage-unit, with national characteristics which determine the propensity to consume and the preference for liquidity, and with a monetary system which rigidly links the quantity of money to the stock of the precious metals, it will be essential for the maintenance of prosperity that the authorities should pay close attention to the state of the balance of trade. For a favourable balance, provided it is not too large, will prove extremely stimulating; whilst an unfavourable balance may soon produce a state of persistent depression. ~ John Maynard Keynes
Liquidity quotes by John Maynard Keynes
The crisis prompted the issue of emergency paper money: in Britain, £1 and 10s Treasury notes; in the United States, the emergency currency that banks were authorized to issue under the Aldrich-Vreeland Act of 1908.46 Then, as now, the authorities reacted to a liquidity crisis by printing money. ~ Niall Ferguson
Liquidity quotes by Niall Ferguson
The danger, of course, is that it is not always easy to distinguish between a default that was inevitable - in the sense that a country is so highly leveraged and so badly managed that it takes very little to force it into default - and one that was not - in the sense that a country is fundamentally sound but is having difficulties sustaining confidence because of a very temporary and easily solvable liquidity problem. In the heat of a crisis, it is all too tempting for would-be rescuers (today notably multilateral lenders such as the IMF) to persuade themselves that they are facing a confidence problem that can be solved with short-term bridge loans, when in fact they are confronting a much more deeply rooted crisis of solvency and willingness to pay ~ Carmen M. Reinhart
Liquidity quotes by Carmen M. Reinhart
The destruction of the inducement to invest by an excessive liquidity-preference was the outstanding evil, the prime impediment to the growth of wealth, in the ancient and medieval worlds. ~ John Maynard Keynes
Liquidity quotes by John Maynard Keynes
The role of liquidity in systemic events provides yet another reason why, in the future, a more system wide or macroprudential approach to regulation is needed. ~ Ben Bernanke
Liquidity quotes by Ben Bernanke
Any central bank should only be in charge of liquidity. Solvency is a matter for the treasury. ~ George Soros
Liquidity quotes by George Soros
Helping Wall Street regain confidence and stability was the last thing an angry public wanted in 2009 after the markets crashed. But without such support, markets can buckle and liquidity can disappear - often for decades, as has been the case in Japan. ~ David Ignatius
Liquidity quotes by David Ignatius
We can't count on the Fed to inject this level of liquidity that we saw last year. ~ Robert Pozen
Liquidity quotes by Robert Pozen
Another lesson is that smart professionals might give an instruction to a program based on a sensible-seeming and normally sound assumption (e.g. that trading volume is a good measure of market liquidity), and that this can produce catastrophic results when the program continues to act on the instruction with iron-clad logical consistency even in the unanticipated situation where the assumption turns out to be invalid. The algorithm just does what it does; and unless it is a very special kind of algorithm, it does not care that we clasp our heads and gasp in dumbstruck horror at the absurd inappropriateness of its actions. This is a theme that we will encounter again. ~ Nick Bostrom
Liquidity quotes by Nick Bostrom
My wealth came from growing businesses. I had wealth, but not liquidity. Basically I transferred illiquid shares of AIC for liquid shares of Manulife. Now I'm the biggest individual shareholder of Manulife. ~ Michael Lee-Chin
