The current crisis is now over a year old and the only good news for capitalists is they have stabilized the decline for now but there is zero growth across the entire global economy.
So how will the capitalists try to restore the rate of profit? All the stimulus bourgeois states threw at the market only changed a negative rate of profit to a zero rate of profit. Is world capitalism going to face a long period of stagnation of near zero rate of profit?

There ain't no crisis for the bourgeois, its an all eat buffet. Look who is profiting over this "crisis" and i am sure you will find the cause. This is what happens in a capitalist society, cram debts down people's throat and pretend everyone is rich. But of course the time has to come where the debt has to be collected... this is such a time, your house your car never belonged to you it was on loan.

The current profits of the productive capitalist class (capitalists that directly own means of production) mostly came through cannibalizing their fixed capital. All indicators showing the health of productive capital have been stagnant after the massive crash in commodity output.
In other words only the parasitic strata of the capitalist class that leach surplus value off productive capitalists (that leach surplus value from the proletariat) are profiting from the crisis as the rate of profit is near zero after about a year of being in the negative. Even bourgeois economists are seeing that odds are productive capitalists are going to go bankrupt under the strain of little profits and finical capitalists demanding more tribute.
