Agree with your assessment about "crying wolf" and being cautious about POGs and PM stocks.

But except for a possible increase in inflation, not tapering and continuing to print $85 billion a month won't improve the metrics you cite either. The failure of four full years of QE, except to create a bubble in equities and pump money into the banks, is sufficient evidence you can't grow jobs or create growth just by printing money. And of course the deficits continue to grow exponentially.

The FED is trapped in a box of its own making. It would do more for the economy if it took the $85 billion and wrote checks every month to every American who earns less than $50,000 a year. At least that money would go into the economy immediately, not be hoarded by the banks as is the case now.

Just my opinion too.
