Hi @robertoueti
This means that we will see less money on less risky investments and more money going into the stock market and more aggressive investments.
Wouldn't that mean, that there will be easier access to debt for investors, businesses, home owners and regular customers?
That's what usually is boosting economy and I've seen few countries in europe flourishing once interest rates went down.
Quantitative Easing can be considered disaster, but ... just look at Japan. Financial engeneering allowed this country to provide their citizens with at least 2 generations of happy and wealthy people.
Brazil will probably have the best years ahead. Just like China did for past 10 years. And you will ride this wave for many years. Only your grandkids will pay the price. So why worry? :)

We usually see a drop in debt interest rates, about a year after the date of the interest rate cut, at least here in Brazil. This is good as it drives the economy, but ... it's bad due to quantitative easing.
As commented below, we will surf at low interest rates, but this has very serious implications for the country. Japan itself is an example of this, if there is a global crisis, the number of people who will lose their jobs, businesses that will be closed and recessions that will happen will be very high, and people will suffer a lot.
I don't believe this is far from happening, in fact, I believe that in less than 10 years we will witness a crisis that will make 2008 look like a little hangover.
Dear @robertoueti
We will all be long dead before those serious implications will become reality.
Oh yeah. I strongly believe that too. However 2008 didn't even "touch" many countries. Poland and entire east europe hardly suffered. What about Brazil? Was it bad during that crisis?
Yours,

But what about our children and grandchildren? They will be alive. If we think like that, we kill all the animals, we will pollute all the rivers, and we don't think about the future, after all, when it arrives, we will be dead.
For Brazil it was terrible. In fact, willy-nilly, the crisis has come to countries, one way or another. Even Australia, which has not had negative GDP since the 1990s, said it suffered a little from the 2008 crisis, which could have grown and developed further, but failed because of the crisis.
Cheers my friend!
