| 09:15 EDT |  | | Japan government panel warned on QE
Japan government panel warned on QE, according to a Reuters article. The advisory group to Fin Min Aso worries that investor demand will not be sustained and that yields will spike higher as a result, which in turn could be a drag on long term growth prospects. Of course the JGB market has already seen yields surge since early April from 0.42% when the aggressive buybacks were outlined, to as high as 0.85% on Friday. |

| 08:05 EDT | | | Fed's Fisher said he would have started QE tapering at the last FOMC meeting
Fed's Fisher said he would have started QE tapering at the last FOMC meeting on April 30, May 1 (via MBS), in comments on CNBC. Of course Fisher has been one of the most hawkish on the FOMC and has been arguing against QE for some time, but importantly, he is not a voter in 2013. He doesn't want to go from "wild turkey" on asset purchases, to "cold turkey" by halting QE -- when to dial back is key as just halting buybacks would be "too violent" for the markets. Chairman Bernanke's major concern is the efficacy of QE. He noted, as analysts've done, that asset buying has helped stocks, but wonders whether it's worked in the economy. He does not see broadbased deflation. The Dallas Fed president continues to aruge against Dodd-Frank, saying it's too complicated. Fisher would like to see Bernanke remain Chairman, avoiding answering a question who will be the next Chairman. But one thing he does know for sure is that it will not be he. Nothing really new from the always engaging Fisher. |
