The Washington propoganda machine knows no bounds. 200,000 plus new jobs created. Give me a break. Have a look at the new job participation level reaching a new low of 62.8% and some brain dead commentator dusts off the taper word again. The US economy is not responding to the largest injection of money printing since the pre war German experiment where a wheelbarrow of the stuff couldn't buy a loaf of bread. What would you rather hold, Riech Marks, Zimbabwe Dollars, freshly printed US Dollars or a block of bullion?
