123enen you're right, sandminer...you got it back to front (80c should read $1.20 and your eq works)...
more IMPORTANTLY...commodities might respond to this MonEasing this way or that way...but,
...there is a possible 'something' behind this that we are not often talking about (at least, not according to Peter Shiff) and that is the fact that this episode of money printing is there to 'cover up' future buying of the US BONDS by the FED due to there being NO CUSTOMERS out there !!!!
Fed buying the US bonds due to there being no customers would trigger panic throughout the world !
"no customers" for "US debt" would mean that profits are low and that would mean that US interest rates have to skyrocket in order for 'US DEBT bonds' to become a 'buy' !
and higher interest means ... what ?
they can barely stand up with next to 0% interest...imagine US economy at 5% interest !
this way The Fed can pretend to 'buy back' under the guise that "it was our plan all along ! thats why we printed all that money" and avoid the panic or high interest rates !!!
or at least that is what they hope for...but what is a chance that it will work?
look up Shiff's blog from last couple of days (1.november...i think!)
