The FSM 2014 outlook said we should not be worried about Tapering on 2014 equity funds.

Is that really the case? I need all sifu opinions. Thanks.

geee, i think
some region will be affected more than others and
some asset class will be affected more the others
but just for how long will it be affected and by how much....that is the "suspense" question.
just how well is our portfolio made up to prepare for this?
just how emotionally are we prepare for this?

Breaking News: Fed to reduce bond buying to $75 billion in bonds per month, split as $35 bln mbs and $40 bln treasuries

In what amounts to the beginning of the end of its unprecedented support for the U.S. economy, the central bank said it would reduce its monthly asset purchases by $10 billion to total $75 billion. It trimmed equally from mortgage and Treasury bonds.
