What Europe Needs

The idea that the problem in Europe is an absence of inflation is ridiculous. If you are going to define inflation as rising consumer prices, the slower they rise, the better. If fact, if consumer prices were to fall that would be better still. So, Europe is not going to solve any economic problems by creating inflation. You will exacerbate them. What Europe needs, the same that America needs, is less government, fewer regulations, less government spending, less government debt, less social welfare programs and more free market capitalism. That is what is going to solve the problems.

The Federal Reserve Is Getting Ready To Increase QE

If you go back to that Fed statement, the Fed does not mention taper, it says adjust monetary policy. Adjustment does not imply a direction. I think what the Fed is getting ready to do is increase the amount of QE, not diminish it.

QE Is Like A Drug

It is like a drug, QE keeps us high but if we lose the drug, we go through withdraw. We are never to have a genuine recovery until the Fed lets us have a real recession.

QE Is Preventing The Economy From Fundamentally Recovering

It will never get better fundamentally until they will stop QE. QE is preventing the economy from fundamentally recovering from the damage.

The Problem For The Market

The problem for the market is, the more the Fed succeeds in pushing up the market now with QE, the further it`s going to fall once QE stops. Because it has to end eventually, otherwise the dollar is going to collapse.
