Q: Has the expansion of the US Fed balance sheet since 2008 contributed to the performance of the markets by keeping interest rates low?
Given the last week of market activity, do you think the US Fed will lean towards cutting the discount rate shortly?
Do you think that this is the appropriate policy response?
Why?
Should interest rates be as low as they are?
Does the US stock market need a low interest rate environment in order to do well?
Thank you.
