The egocentricity of the present (prefaced by the tale of Ruth and Emma)
Fisher, Richard W.
(2008)

Recovering from the housing and financial crisis
Luttrell, David; Duca, John V.
(2010)
The recent recession was unusual because it stemmed from an unsustainable easing of credit standards and financing, which fueled the prior expansion but also the imbalances that led to the worst recession since the 1930s. When losses on new financial practices ended excessive lending, the economy was hit by housing and credit shocks, culminating in a financial crisis. Home construction plunged, wealth fell, credit standards tightened and financial markets seized up. ; The initial impacts of these four shocks on gross domestic product (GDP) were amplified by cyclical interactions between ...

Why did so many people make so many ex post bad decisions?: the causes of the foreclosure crisis
Willen, Paul S.; Gerardi, Kristopher S.; Foote, Christopher L.
(2012)
This paper presents 12 facts about the mortgage market. The authors argue that the facts refute the popular story that the crisis resulted from financial industry insiders deceiving uninformed mortgage borrowers and investors. Instead, they argue that borrowers and investors made decisions that were rational and logical given their ex post overly optimistic beliefs about house prices. The authors then show that neither institutional features of the mortgage market nor financial innovations are any more likely to explain those distorted beliefs than they are to explain the Dutch tulip bubble ...

The dollar during the global recession: US monetary policy and the exorbitant duty
Tang, Jenny; Stavrakeva, Vania
(2018-10-01)
We document that during the Global Recession, US monetary policy easings triggered the ?exorbitant duty? of the United States, the issuer of the world?s dominant currency, by causing a dollar appreciation and a transfer of wealth from the United States to the rest of the world. This dollar appreciation runs counter to the predictions of standard macroeconomic models and works through two channels: (i) a flight-to-safety effect which lowered the expected excess returns of holding safe US government debt relative to foreign debt and (ii) lowered expected future inflation in the United States ...

Where we go from here : the crisis and beyond (with reference to P.G. Wodehouse, John Kenneth Galbraith, Alan Greenspan and an unnamed Eller College student)
Fisher, Richard W.
(2010)
Remarks before the Eller College of Management, University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona, March 30, 2010 ; "Generally, the data indicate that we will move down the field this year at about a 3 percent clip. It is less than we had grown accustomed to in the heyday before the crisis, and it may not result in as rapid a reduction in unemployment as we would like."

Surveying the aftermath of the storm: changes in family finances from 2007 to 2009
Mach, Traci L.; Kennickell, Arthur B.; Bucks, Brian K.; Moore, Kevin B.; Bricker, Jesse
(2011)
In 2009, the Federal Reserve Board implemented a survey of families that participated in the 2007 Survey of Consumer Finances (SCF) to gain detailed information on the effects of the recent recession on all types of households. Using data from the 2007-09 SCF panel, we highlight the variation in households' financial experiences by examining the distribution of changes in families' balance sheets. Further, we use information on changes in families' saving, investing, and spending behavior to consider the potential longer-term consequences of the current recession on households' finances and ...

Did bankruptcy reform cause mortgage default rates to rise?
White, Michelle J.; Li, Wenli; Zhu, Ning S.
(2010)
This paper argues that the U.S. bankruptcy reform of 2005 played an important role in the mortgage crisis and the current recession. When debtors file for bankruptcy, credit card debt and other types of debt are discharged - thus loosening debtors' budget constraints. Homeowners in financial distress can therefore use bankruptcy to avoid losing their homes, since filing allows them to shift funds from paying other debts to paying their mortgages. But a major reform of U.S. bankruptcy law in 2005 raised the cost of filing and reduced the amount of debt that is discharged. The authors argue ...
