If this rally fails...

Since the Fed's mandate is to 'keep inflation stable' then their actions are completely opposite to what they should be doing. They are NOT working on their inflation mandate they are attempting to forestall a recession and prop up, artifically, the stock market.

I thnk they will fail to prevent a severe market correction and we will get massive inflation also. Start looking to buy real estate and finance it with these low interest rates.

The ECB's mandate is price stability "without prejudice". The Fed's is

SECTION 2A—Monetary Policy Objectives

The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Open Market Committee shall maintain long run growth of the monetary and credit aggregates commensurate with the economy's long run potential to increase production, so as to promote effectively the goals of maximum employment, stable prices, and moderate long-term interest rates.

The slight differences in language make a big difference

The market is making new highs with the Dow +315 with an hour left in the session . . . Obviously, participants understand the MAGNITUDE of the FED placing 25% of its balance sheet up as collateral.

It's called "collateral-cleansing" and most posters on this thread that bash the Fed clearly have no understanding of this, let alone the magnitude of this action.

How are you arriving at the 25% figure???


p.s. - to karl and everyone, I just came back to my laptop. Diesel is $4.18/gallon and I do believe wheat closed close to $12.43/bushel.

What is an inflation-mandated fed to do?
