Since everyone is clearly watching this, the problem will occur elsewhere.

With this much printing (without requisite gains in GDP), it means there's already a problem, but we don't understand it yet.

Well the fed is often liquidity of last resort so the question is why they're providing it overnight. The chatter is Deutsche bank is the cause of it which would seem to imply that the problem is contained. Basically banks don't trust each other right now which is what happened before the last tanking but it also happens frequently without tanking. So I don't know what this really signals.
