I have been told that the Fed is contracting the money supply, selling bonds to soak up excess USD. This explains part of the USD up / Gold down. This is based on the "Austrian" measurement of money supply, not MZM. I hope to learn the detail later. This might be to slow/stop the housing bubble, or absorb all the re-patriated money US corporations are getting from overseas. By the way, the yield curve inverted, with the 10 year under 4.09 % I think 5 year is slightly higher.
