To QE or not to QE? This is the question. No definite answer is still firmly enunciated, but all odds are in favor of another round of CTRL+ Print. Why? Too put it quite simply, because the massive US debt needs to be financed in some manner, and the easiest way to get away from this Damocles` sword is through a combination of inflationary devaluation and exchange rate manipulation. All under the noble banner of stimulating the economy. Now, why is this even important? It`s probably related to the narrow-minded "traders`" obsession with the term quantitative easing. Upon hearing mere hints or allusions towards more printing, the market turns haywire: launching in 5...4...3...2...1. The side-effects of such a policy of wealth redistribution are inflated asset prices and accumulated cash piles at the corporate level (which incidentally are usually left to "compound" in this negative rate environment).
