No QE3. The markets have been injected with this hopium for months and have been let down on every occasion except for this last one. The Fed\u2019s issuance of this last round of quantitative easing has rendered future doses of this drug ineffective.<\/p>\n<p>It was explicitly stated that the Fed would issue QE as needed in unlimited amounts until the market is able to create enough jobs to stimulate dramatic growth. This means that there will not likely be any future spikes in the market as a result of another QE announcement\u2026the market no longer questions whether or not more drugs will come, now they expect them.<\/p>\n<p>The Fed had been using \u201cQE hype\u201d to rally the markets. Every time we were on the verge of a collapse another QE announcement would be made bringing us a few feet back from the fiscal cliff. But that tactic wont work anymore\u2026<\/p>\n<p>The Fed\u2019s actions are fiscally irresponsible and the U.S. will quickly suffer the consequences of this poor decision. If the economic change needed to return to growth is structural then a monetary fix, or QE, isn\u2019t the remedy.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. Dollar is on the decline against other major currencies, and investors are losing confidence in the Fed\u2019s ability to manage the ensuing risk of another recession. Question that remains, what happens when the QE drug gets taken away?<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s time to hedge; if the value of the U.S. dollar collapses how will you respond? Diversification is key.
