Paddy Hirsch, you are the best! Informative, straightforward, clear, concise and very entertaining. A lot of this stuff discussed on CNBC goes over my head but you simplify these abstract concepts for regular people like me with simple real life analogies we all can relate to and grasping the logic behind it all becomes painless. Keep up the great videos. I am a regular subscriber and a big fan of your TH-cam channel.
Watched a few of his videos, concise, clear and has a wonderful way to explain complex subject in plain and fun language. Can't ask for better teaching.
I love your videos. What interests me is the deflation/inflation argument. I'm quite into the Austrian perspective, which is, at times of economic bust just let things be, let prices fall, let those who have made bad decisions face the consequences. From that point the economy will start rebuilding. In fact, they say it is at this point when bargain offers are available on the market then that will be a catalysis to start recovery. Why is that wrong or is it?
As I’ve gotten older I’ve become fascinated by stock market and investments. Of course, like many Ive got no formal education in these matters. Thank you Paddy for helping me understand so much now.
Excellent Video....If all of the Assets become "Toxic" Can we put all of the Zombie banks in Bankruptcy and let them open up Salad Bars instead because there will be an unlimited supply of Vinegar!
For us common people, don't use their words "toxic assets" and "sub-prime." In place of toxic assets, use words that reflect what happened. toxic assets translates to fraudulent contracts(FC), greed contracts(GC), the ultimate ponzi scheme(UPC), etc. For sub-prime loans, called it Prime Plus Loans(PPL). Some of you will come up with much better names than me. Make those names available. No what matter let us persist in avoiding their word coining words, terms, and phrases.
David, You are absolutely right!! Toxic Asset is simply a liability (not in the true accounting sense, but it is). And this liability cannot be quantified simply because no one know the size of such blackholes represented by TAs. And now Geithner comes up with this cool new name "Legacy Assets"... This is a all horseshit!
@camyoung30 not to get into an argument but that might be true. When people eat junk food what happens usually? They start not looking so good compared to when they were eating healthier foods. This could be the same with the government. The government is eating up toxic assets. These are the assets that no one wants because it is not a sound financial investment. Since these are assets that are not good for individual investors it probably is not good for a government either.
$800 Billion Sub Prime loan from 2008 are still at Zero %. Have nit been paying 5+ years after 4-6 Modifications. THEY WILL NEVER PAY....... because these sub prime loan holders are part 7 Million Auto Loans 90+ days overdue?? Repo Car how can they work??? DOOM??? These Banks Buying large Amounts of Gold?
You are a great teacher.... two thumbs up.

LOL..."never saw a column for a toxic asset."
Classic. You go on with your "basic" accounting thinking.
How about all that laundered drug money? I guess that was providing the banks with liquidity.
Trick question. They are all toxic assets
