tis thread is abt humor, so its ok to humor your rants
your below question too deep and u need to contact ben directly below before he gets sack in jan2014
if reducing QE same function as inc int rate, the clue wil be a mkt correction or bloodbath happening
since the fed under ben has been very upfront on his actions, u should likewise be prepared for usa econ data releases
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-06-24/f...mprovement.htmlChairman Ben S. Bernanke last week said the Fed may start slowing the pace of its bond-buying program later this year and end it entirely around mid-2014 if the economy gets on a path of sustainable growth..... Investors shouldn’t overreact to the central bank’s plans to reduce the pace of asset purchases, Fisher said in an interview with the Financial Times published today on its web site. Investors behaved like “feral hogs” after the June 19 comments by Bernanke, he said, according to the newspaper.
frankly speaking with obama non leadership and the worlds action, we should not be seeing any econ recovery
http://www.forbes.com/sites/nathanlewis/20...-stuck-with-qe/In other words, the rest of the world is not only drifting toward more (not less) QE itself, but the implications of all of this for the U.S. is also – more problems, and thus more QE for longer. One of the problems with Keynesianism in general is “the ratchet.” The government spends a lot of money to supposedly get the economy going. This is inevitably disappointing

My thinking is largely in line with his except that I hold 0% gold. Never been a fan of gold because gold has no real fundamental value. Indeed, if the world moves back to the gold standard, the value of gold will skyrocket. Yet, from the political science perspective I don't agree that the world could possibly move away from fiat money, partly because of the very fact that this would cause the value of gold to skyrocket.
Anyway the question of when interest rates will go up has always been uncertain up until very recently, hence I would have agreed with Mark's statement at the time of his article that the "when" was unknown. Yet, the latest announcement by the Fed on the tapering of QE is some indication of future interest rate movements, as reducing QE performs the same function as increasing interest rates. While it is foreseeable that US interest rates will stay relatively low, the open question is how low? It's all a question of degree. If by end 2014 QE has ended but interest rates are still zero, we would still be in low interest rate territory, but US monetary policy would be substantially tighter. My concern is what would a marginal tightennd pace as the change in US rates, as tapering QE significantly tightens monetary policy even if US interest rates remain low.ing in US monetary policy do to foreign funds sitting around in emerging markets? It is not clear that the change in hot money flows would be at the same rate a
Thanks for humoring my random rants.
