Excellent interview here with Diane Swonk, who was been very level headed throughout the credit crunch. She doesn’t think we’re necessarily out of the woods just yet:
Disclosures - Unless otherwise noted, authors have no positions in any securities mentioned and readers should never consider this to be investment advice. Always consult your financial advisor before acting on any ideas.

Level headed? Uh, I don’t think she has that much credibility.

“I just don’t think we have what it takes to prick the bubble,” said Diane C. Swonk, chief economist at Mesirow Financial in Chicago, who was an optimist during the 90′s. “I don’t think prices are going to fall, and I don’t think they’re even going to be flat.”
