The US economy will reverse sharply without the free-spending ways of the Fed and ultimately the Fed will have to turn the tap back on. Kick the can down the road and hope we’re all dead and buried when the system collapses. Sophie’s choice! I’m joining the supercyclebear club 🙂

Should the move to taper set off a positive feedback loop selling US Treasuries, significant changes to the performance of recent ‘risk off’ assets (in particular US bonds) would seem likely. In which case, with a significant fall in equities, would it not require the Fed to reverse its taper and return to extraordinary monetary policy?
