The global economy runs on credit, so when there’s trouble in the credit markets, EVERYTHING hangs in the balance. Bond yields have been rising fast around the world this year. So fast in some cases, that things are starting to break. Just this past week, the UK credit market started melting down — forcing the Bank of England to engineer a desperate rescue by buying 65billion-pounds worth of gilts on the open market. How worried should we be about instability in our credit markets? To find out, we talk with investor and analyst Bill Fleckenstein of Fleckenstein Capital.

Bill Fleckenstein is the President of Fleckenstein Capital and writes a popular column ‘Contrarian Chronicles’ for MSN Money as well as the daily Market Rap column for his website: Fleckenstein Capital. Bill has appeared at one time or another in virtually all financial media including Bloomberg, CNBC, The New York Times, MSN, Marketwatch, Barron’s and more. Bill is a highly sought after speaker, successful author of Greenspan’s Bubbles: The Age of Ignorance at the Federal Reserve and has been in the financial sector for over 25 years.

As a fresh-faced graduate from Brown University in the early 1990s, Adam got a first-hand look at all that was broken with Wall Street as an investment banking analyst for Merrill Lynch. Most importantly, he’s a devoted husband and dad.
