More air into the balloon.

Makes a bigger noise when it pops.

amazed at this, really.

I had absolutely expected them to announce a tapering, and not even such a small one.

No way the Fed is going to allow interest rates to rise!

Barnake worships at the feet of Keynes.

[ReaganGeneration2]

Soon, when this unwinds, on its own, people will need fortitude not seen in about 70 years.

I guess the cronies will be selling their long gold positions today.
