Both output volatility and inflation volatility rose significantly in the 1970s and early 1980s and, as I have noted, both fell sharply after about 1984. Economists generally agree that the 1970s, the period of highest volatility in both output and inflation, was also a period in which monetary policy performed quite poorly, relative to both earlier and later periods.\u00a0 Few disagree that monetary policy has played a large part in stabilizing inflation, and so the fact that output volatility has declined in parallel with inflation volatility, both in the United States and abroad, suggests that monetary policy may have helped moderate the variability of output as well.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Bernanke then goes on to detail various possible causes of this period of stability, digressing into voluminous explanations involving the Taylor Curve, and ends by roughly concluding that \u201cimproved performance of macroeconomic policies, particularly monetary policy\u201d was likely the main instigator:\u00a0<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cI have argued today that improved monetary policy has likely made an important contribution not only to the reduced volatility of inflation (which is not particularly controversial) but to the reduced volatility of output as well. Moreover, because a change in the monetary policy regime has pervasive effects, I have suggested that some of the effects of improved monetary policies may have been misidentified as exogenous changes in economic structure or in the distribution of economic shocks. This conclusion on my part makes me optimistic for the future, because I am confident that monetary policymakers will not forget the lessons of the 1970s.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>What is completely absent from Bernanke\u2019s assessment though are the significant instances where the Fed itself worked specifically to moderate volatility thus thwarting normal market function in the name of a new implied Fed mandate of \u201ceconomic stability\u201d and, over the long run, setting up the circumstances for a new emerging era of significant, possibly uncontrollable, volatility and tumult.<\/p>\n<p>In response to the \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Black_Monday_(1987)\">Crash of 1987<\/a>\u201d then Fed Chair Alan Greenspan, barely two months in office,\u00a0 snapped into action directing the Fed to function in its role as \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.stlouisfed.org\/publications\/regional-economist\/july-1996\/learning-the-lessons-of-history-the-federal-reserve-and-the-payments-system#:~:text=The%20Federal%20Reserve%2C%20consistent%20with,the%20economic%20and%20financial%20system.\">lender of last resort<\/a>\u201d supplying liquidity through their open market operations and issuing a statement providing, in clear and unequivocal terms, the Feds position on the matter.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cThe Federal Reserve, consistent with its responsibilities as the Nation&#8217;s central bank, affirmed today its readiness to serve as a source of liquidity to support the economic and financial system&#8221;.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>And with that one statement Greenspan, singlehandedly, created the \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thestreet.com\/dictionary\/f\/fed-put\">Fed Put<\/a>\u201d (once called the Greenspan Put), an implied guarantee that the Fed would always work to place a floor under the stock market in the interest of maintaining the stability of the financial system.<\/p>\n<p>The \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Moral_hazard\">moral hazard<\/a>\u201d created by this single Fed policy change is hard to overstate.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Markets are nothing if not a risk discounting mechanism and by injecting itself into the downside portion of the risk calculus, the Fed severely disrupted normal market function, distorted investor\u2019s perception of risk and particularly kneecapped the process of creative destruction.<\/p>\n<p>From that point on, the Fed assumed a new implied mandate, namely maintaining \u201ceconomic stability\u201d, to add to their existing primary functions of maintaining \u201cstable prices\u201d and \u201cmaximum employment\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>But Greeenspan did not stop there, with the Fed\u2019s new implied \u201ceconomic stability\u201d mandate expanding in 1989 from simply covering systemic shocks coming as a result of stock market loss to also providing a bailout backstop against losses incurred by banking and financial interests, specifically the savings and loan thrifts of the late-1980s \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Savings_and_loan_crisis\">Savings and Loan Crisis<\/a>\u201d, in an effort to contain the impact of numerous insolvent institutions on the financial system.\u00a0<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cArrangements have been established for the provision of liquidity support to savings and loan associations by the Federal Reserve Banks and the Federal Home Loan Banks,\u201d Greenspan said in February 1989 in a joint statement with M.
