QE wasn't real money put into the economy and we know this because inflation didn't soar as the "money supply" soared. It's not real money. QE was a series of banking transactions used by the Fed to help banks recapitalize after they nearly collapsed.

QT, in theory, should be a series of banking transaction also and have no negative effect on securities. It remains a great unknown as to why it hasn't happened yet.

Do you see a negative from QE (inflation etc.)? I realize some will say the market is a bubble because of QE but it's not like there were any other choices. A recession cannot happen for a very long time so interest rates have to remain low matter what the cost (even inflation). The Fed failed to deal with derivatives and asked Congress to not regulate them....a fatal mistake that still needs to be fixed. They need to fix what they broke but they also need a Congress to do it. Therein lies the problem. Without new laws, the Fed is forced to keep the economy on steroids.
