    Yup, From NewsFeeders article the Fed felt that the U.S. economy has been performing well this year after a weak first quarter. Economists are forecasting the best nine-month stretch of growth since 2005-2006, with growth expected over 3%. Also Fed indicated no threat of Inflation and also said that the labor market is improving significantly, not only with 5.9% unemployment but also that under-utilization in labor resources (number of people out of job market) “is gradually diminishing.”


    So much for "QE3 Destroying the Economy" by printing so much money that inflation skyrockets, economies collapse and Gold soars (see 2 year old articles below). All 3 assertions were 100% wrong. We should hear no more from those sources but read below anyway for entertainment.

    Visa's gain today is accounting for 150-points of the Dow's 114 gain as I write this. In other words it would be down 36 if Visa was flat. The S&P and Nasdaq are down.

    I guess if Visa is doing well it means consumers are spending. Maybe spending money they don't have, but spending.

    SPY had some pretty funky chart action starting at 1:20PM for about 15 minutes straight and then trading halted. Still flatlined as of this post, 2:33PM.
