Keep in mind that FED didn't lower the fed funds rate to near zero around the financial crisis, but rather, they chased it down, marked their posting to the open market, in reaction to the collapse in the demand for money. FED, Berdoo, often states that FED keeps the rate low to encourage a revival of demand, but if that were true, why is FED trying to get inflation up through Permanent purchases? Fact is, FED controls NOTHING currently, with the exception of impressionable minds on WS.
