Thanks for your feedback I guess my question is now: from who the FED is buying? If they buy with central money (bad translation from french) from banks and other financial institutions then I think you're right that QE will not directly cause inflation. But can the FED purchase or lend with fiduciary money? P.S. on an accounting point of view, they are creating a deposit (credit) and obtaining a financial asset (debit). So, they are not printing physical money but it seems that they are creating central money (french again :p) and swapping it with an asset. P.S. 2 I bought Principles for Navigating Big Debt Crises. I'm supposed to receive it Sunday, but I guess Amazon just took my money without telling me the real delivery date. Take care Will
