Back in July/ August, investors were bearish on the market and they talked about the Hindenburg Omen and that everything would crash. What then happened was, September was very strong, October was a reasonably good month as well and the market has gone from a low on July 1st of 1010 on the S&P 500 Index, to close to 1200.
And so, a lot of QE2 has been discounted, and if you were Mr. Bernanke, I suppose you would probably disappoint investors somewhat with QE2, and watch the market reaction. If the markets really sell off, you can then increase QE2, or launch QE3, QE4, QE5 and so forth. There will be many more QE`s.
