Alan Blinder Interviewed by Bob Brinker
"Bob said nobody asked Ben Bernanke this week whether if there is a QE3 what kind of impact he would hope to get. How would you answer that? Alan said if and when they do QE3 it will most likely be concentrated in mortgage backed securities in order to push mortgage rates down even further.

What did you think of QE1? Alan says QE1 was a success. It came out in the height of the crises when the MBS market had died. The fed came in as a big time buyer and re-established a market reducing the spread relative to Treasuries. That would be the object again in QE3 but it could not have the success as QE1 because the market is not in a catatonic state"
