Grace,re:"interest rate". Here's my take. Fed will say,
"while the recovery is underway, we do see some uneven
sign...blah...blah...blah... we will continue to monitor
the situation and print more money as necessary. Since
there are signs of strengh and signs of weakness, we are
leaving the rate unchange with the 'BIAS to lower it'
when there are further weakness in the economy".
Of course, AG will say something more intelligent than that.

My reference chart of MZM show that the Fed has increased the money supply over the past five years at a rate of 9%.

They had a huge 25% increase during 2001 which they definitely drained between January and May of this year. But an increase of 9% when the ostensible inflation rate in around 2% qualifies as fast money creation in my book.
