Think about this. If the U.S. GDP grew at just 1.9 percent last year while the Federal Reserve was doing 85 billion a month of QE the entire time, the entire year, what is going to happen to GDP this year if the Fed withdraws that stimulus before the year is over? The numbers are going to be even lower. They are not going to be higher than they were in 2013.

I guess this is the last time they are going to be able to blame weak GDP numbers on the weather. Although how they can blame the first quarter`s number on the weather is beyond me but they are getting away with it.
The government reported that the first quarter GDP was up 0.1 percent... 0.1 percent? That is basically flat!

More Money Chasing A Given Supply Of Goods
"Efforts to combat recession through stimulus measures mean more money chasing a given supply of goods. Being the very definition of inflation, that simply pushes up prices while doing nothing to improve underlying economics." - in The Little Book Of Bull Moves
