CNBC Exclusive: CNBC Transcript: Duquesne Capital Management Founder Stan Druckenmiller Speaks with CNBC's Kelly Evans on "Closing Bell" Today
Well, we have-- we do have too much debt. And we particularly have a lot of debt in the corporate sector. And that's why some great minds don't want to raise rates here, because the debt is so large. But when I look at the healing that's taken place, again on a risk/reward basis, if you don't raise rates now, the debt's just going to continue to accelerate at the pace its gone the last two years, and it would be much greater. But of course whenever you raise rates-- with this much debt around, there's a concern. I frankly think the market can handle it, but that's why there are markets. I might be right, I might be wrong. - Stan Druckenmiller
No worries. All our debt problems are behind us. And to put us in the right frame of mind, let's all hold hands and sing Kumbaya.
Do you know what I like most about the Fed? Consistency.

There's a tear forming in my eye. All that bond love and so few places for it to go! ;)
ReplyDeleteThnaks for posting that-- it's a good quote from Druckenmiller. Also, I chuckled at "Flush with Debt."
ReplyDeleteJames,
ReplyDeleteCorporations have never been more "comfortable and absorbant". It's all a part of the 2-ply economy. They sure are cleaning up! Just wish there was more air freshener, lol. Sigh.
