— I think it is fair to say that the chief US economist at Deutsche Bank is more pessimistic than the worst-case scenarios being used in the bank stress tests. Those assume a 3.3% decline in 2009 and a 0.5% growth in 2010 (from the FAQ). These stress tests are kind of a waste of time anyway. We’ve already been assured that the banks are well capitalized.
