John Wright of Wright Investors' Service argues current Fed policy keeps money tight and rates high, choking investment and expansion. He says oil supply issues aside, lower prime rates from over 9 percent and long term corporate bonds from 8.5 percent are needed to avert recession and boost production, jobs, and stock confidence.
