Sir Kenneth Rogoff with his “The Fed must not play Santa to the markets” December 18 tells us to be careful since besides recession inflation might be lurking around in the woods. Okay that sounds like a reasonable warning from a reasonable man; problem is what are we to do with it? Given that our current problems might very well be derived from the fact that the Fed dressed as Santa during the rest of the year does Rogoff mean that comes Christmas they should now dress in academic robes?
