1.TheGlobalGlut(供过于求)ofSavings
E)"Oneoftheleadingindicatorsofafinancialcrisisiswhenyouhaveasustainedsurgeinmoneyflowingintothecountrywhichmakesborrowingcheaperandeasier,"saysHarvardeconomistKennethRogoff.Ourcrisiswasnodifferent:

2.HouseholdDebt-andWhyWeNeedIt

3.The"ShadowBanking"Market
I)Thefinancialcrisisstartedoutsimilarlysevere,butitwasn't,atfirst,acrisisofconsumers.Itwasacrisisofbanks.Itneverbecameacrisisofconsumersbecauseconsumerdepositsareinsured.Butlargeinvestors-pensionfunds,banks,corporations,andothers--aren'tinsured.Butwhentheyhearthattheircollateral(从属担保品)isdroppinginvalue,theydemandtheirmoneyback.Andwheneveryonedoesthatatonce,it'slikeanold-fashionedbankrun:
