Not much is certain. On one side you have huge deflationary pressures due to collapsing credit bubble that broke historic records. On the other side you have mad Ben, who also broke historic records while using his tool. We also know how traditional Keynesian f-up unfolds - Argentina, Russia, Greece, Spain, Mexico, Iceland, SE Asia, etc. The net result will be a combination of devaluation and default, but the exact proportion can't be known in advance. I believe deflationary pressures have the upper hand at the moment, but that may change in a heartbeat, err, Fedbeat. By deflation I mean deflation of asset bubbles and overall supply of credit.
