Wang Qing, chief economist for greater China at Morgan Stanley, talks with Bloomberg's Bernard Lo in Hong Kong about the impact of coordinated interest rate cuts by central banks on global economies, the outlook for People's Bank of China monetary policy and the likelihood that the financial crisis will affect Chinese banks."

As are proposed by Team Obama.
James Pethokoukis has this.
Mr. Ohanian also explains:
"Bad polices impact the two most important determinants of living standards: output per worker and the amount of time devoted to market work.

Commercial and industrial loans are up 9% year over year. And to those with good credit histories, conforming mortgages are available at 30-year fixed rates of around 6%. That represents an inflation-adjusted mortgage rate that is low by historical standards."
So the current financial crisis is not as deep or as broad as some have feared... He agrees with the Treasury plan...
