clive maund writes about the implications of yesterday's announcement by the fed:

the course has been set towards collapse of the dollar and hyperinflation because yesterday's announcement has opened the floodgates - they can't stop with buying $300 billion of this stuff, just like the bailouts they will find themselves obliged to buy more and more until they crumple up completely like an exhausted junkie. If the Fed thinks it can prop up the Treasury market by creating money to backstop it, it is in for a rude awakening - the huge near 3% drop in the dollar index yesterday will have scared the **** out of foreign investors in US government paper.
