  4. I think the Federal Reserve members are probably puzzled by a lot of things, including clamshell packaging, revolving doors, escalators, and the internets.

  6. Did they really believe that this day would not come? Somehow I find that hard to believe. Time to face the music.

  8. The Treasury market is WAY MORE concerned with Obama's fiscal policy than the Fed's monetary policy. If you don't believe me then take a look at the Bund and the Long Gilt vs. 30 year Treasuries. Everyone is easing but not everyone is spending money i.e. increasing supply, like the U.S.
