[insert GS power-trip conspiracy theory here]
Unsurprisingly, William Dudley was picked to replace Timothy Geithner as president of the NYFed, which probably entitles him to a really tricked-out nametag. We at LOLFed have no doubt that Dudley Do-Right will do fine, as he already has experience packing the Fed’s balance sheet with junk nobody else wants:
Dudley, a former top economist at Goldman Sachs, joined the New York Fed in 2007 as one of Geithner’s top aides.He has played a key role in designing and implementing the Federal Reserve’s strategy to buy assets to stabilize certain financial markets. The Fed’s balance sheet has grown from about $800 billion to more than $2 trillion as a result of the purchases. In addition, the quality of the balance sheet has suffered.
Dudley, we look forward to your next move, as it is always nice to have new people upon whose faces we can emblazon captions. Now that I look around, a few more pics to work with would be nice, too.
