QE3

and just like that gold shoots up another 20 bucks an oz.

2013-2014 ?   You must be kidding.

Some in the Fed are already calling for higher interest rates.  Expect a hike sometime in 2012 if things continue at their current pace...  especially if jobs pick up over the coming months.

not one person knows what's going to happen and it's because there is no one in this world that knows how to solve the challenges the US are going through.  Only thing we know is the US is too big to fail and they will continue to throw money at the economy until it picks up again.

Our Community-organizer-in-chief does not control the FED.

It's his decision to set Economic Policy and steer the Economy.... Not the Pres. 


Let's start with the basics.  

Let's look at the title of your thread to show you really don't have a clue; ..  "QE3"

If you'd been paying any attention this week, you would know that the FED is planning on winding down Bond Purchases in June.... effectively ending QE2 !! 

There are no plans for QE3.  The FED is transitioning from stimulating the economy, to deciding when to increase interest rates.

 

 

 

Feel free to do some deeper reading on the subject... Knowledge is your friend.   

well, i think the FED has actually stated that they will "roll the proceeds" from the Quantum easings of christmas past, back into fresh bond purchases, but i am not certain

either way, rates have been dropping

i guess that means that (now i hope you're sitting down, this is a real shocker) what they say, and what actually happens are two different things

Buying treasuries to loosen credit, would suggest that they believe the problem to be that credit is too expensive.  But now that we have some actual evidence to consume, it appears that in this deflationary environment, that the FED actions have caused interest rates to be artificially HIGH!  And now that they are slowing their 'printing' and purchasing, rates are dropping on their own

IMAGINE THAT

When QE2 ends, it could be a big event.  Just listen to the words of Bill Gross, when he says  $1.5T worth of check writing per year by the FED basically disappears."   Bill Gross... aka the Bond King...  oversees the $1.2T Portfolio of PIMCO.... and yes that's Trillion..

It could mean an end to the roaring rally experienced by stocks..

When the training-wheels come off the bike... no one really knows what's going to happen.

I was actually waiting to see if Mr. Intelligence here (Rush) 

 could actually post something that was even in the realm of possibility. But since we just got the same old worthless crap I decided to make it easy for you. 

Tilt, I have to agree with you.   They don't even need to physically print money any more.  They just create it out of nothing and give it to their cronies.  Why would they stop doing this? 

Go re-read post #8.  I don't know where you get your information, but odds are Quantitative Easing ends in June.

Seek a new source of information.  You are a confused individual.

     QE3....  

How many QE's are we going to have?

'Gamble, we likely end the Quantitative Easing with QE2 this June.    The FED has pumped unprecedented amounts of $ into the system to stave off deflation with QE1 and QE2.... and appears to have achieved that objective.  Now, it will have to tackle the looming problem of inflation in the months &  years ahead. 

The FED starts to tighten its policy by effectively ending QE2 in June, and will likely take a more active role increasing interest rates sometime in 2012 to fight inflation.

Last month's jobs number only gives the FED more ammo that it will need to wind down its easy money policy soon.






 ....But I do have to hand it to 'Tilt.   He does  provide some good entertainment & storytelling for all of us.

QE3...   

An awfully bold statement considering you're the one going against the grain, and  sticking his 'nuts out on this.
