$85B/mo?

I bought ahead of this, but was guessing it would be insignificant tapering... 83B or something.  So upside surprise even for me.

today's whole FOMC exercise is the #1 reason why a centrally planned printing press favors those who control it.

i guarantee you someone other than just Ben knew ahead of time what the decision was going to be.  which is precisely why the gold market popped a full 3 min before the announcement.

if there was ever a time and need for a "fair" money...

Whew! what a relief, I was bitching about my timing on my precious metals purchased that I just made the last couple days. This news was very unexpected....Good for those holding precious metals....(and stocks)..

There are lots of ways to short fiat without becoming encumbered by other fiat.
Diversity is not a bad thing.

That was no panic buy.

That was a "I know what's gonna happen" buy.

+1. If only the majority of people would see as clearly as you do. But they are so encumbered with deciding wether they should vote left or right in failed represantative so-called democracies, if even that. Or watching TV more likely...

We're being raped back and front, drawn into wars, deprived of our chances to prosperity,... our children fodder for the gods and most don't even notice this shit is going on.

It's truly sickening.
