Look at the dow today, you can always tell when the day is totally owned by the fed manipulators, dow opened +200 driven by futures at +200 on nothing (now the narrative is hawkish instead of dovish fed statements moving the market positive) and it has been kept range bound between 16,350 and 16,400 without the "new normal" volatility swings. Such a joke! What I would like to know, what has been the cost of these daily interventions to the tax payer since 2008? It's got to be in the 100's of billions, and for what, an illusion of a booming economy.
