My take away is,

The Fed is conscerened with investors trying to get ahead of the expected rollback of bond buying. The attempt at being unpredictable is to avoid a sudden drop in the market from a set in stone strategy.

The article describes this strategy has alredy be agreed upon, but the time to implement is being discussed. The 3rd and 4th quarters are mentioned, but Fisher out of Dallas suggests starting now.

Thanks Brah. When Fisher of the Dallas Fed or Plosser of Philadelphia give a speech, you know it's going to be critical of current Fed policy. But when Williams of SF starts to talk about pulling back QE as early as this summer, you know some balloons are being floated.

Good to see they have a plan for a soft landing and we don't go from 'nominal support' to hyper inflation one morning while Chairman Ben is having his Wheaties. Just hope it works.
