I'm not sure if your questions are serious or if you're just trolling.

From a Financial News Marticle titled:"Federal Reserve signals unease with QE, and an end in 2013.

"The article stated, "Quantitative easing, or creating money to buy financial assets, could end “well before the end of 2013” because of concerns by several policy makers over financial stability, and that the Fed’s portfolio of assets – now over $2-trillion (U.S.) – is becoming too large, according to minutes of the central bank’s December policy meeting, released in Washington after the customary three-week delay".

Please! If you can't answer to my questions, then let somebody else who can. I'm not a troll. Federal Reserve monetary policy affects us all, including me. I'm just trying to educate myself on this issue. I always believed that manipulaton of its currency, is the greatest evil a country can engage in.

I don't put things out there until I've done a reasonable effort to educate myself on the issue. Fact is the Fed has indicated an end to QE as indicted in the above. Aparently his announcement spooked the Stock Market.
