Lower coupon MBS purchases and extending low interest rate language to mid 2015.

Looks like my S&P ceiling call just got blown out of the window.

ETA: Just looked at the details, $40B a month till $500B. Pretty modest actually, market spiked than came back down.

Dammit. This will drive the dollar down and oil up.

Soooooo, the FED isn't boxing itself in with $600B this time and have decided to basically move toward a policy of open ended asset purchases?

So what exactly does "buying mortgages" mean?

Time for the final leg up of the commodity boom. I think the SPR will be used to keep oil down going into the election. Unless this very convenient Middle East flare up is used as the oil run up cause.

How does the Fed determine the rate at which to ease?
