I watch religiously, and you're right - $11 Billion is a large amount for one day. Interesting though that it's not having that big an impact on the market, the dollar, or gold equities. This is important as I believe it is a leading indicator of the lack of strength in the market.

Almost $5 billion of it was probably used to repay the $5 billion 4-day repurchase they issued on Friday to try and keep this market afloat.
