Quote of the Day: Train Surfing QE∞

We are all train surfers now!

David Kotok of Cumberland Advisors couldn’t express our dilemma more perfectly.

Let me be very clear. I disagree with this Fed policy move. It was not my first choice. I think the Fed is now playing with fire. But our job is to manage portfolios and not to make policy. If the Fed is now in QE infinity and if the Fed is now buying duration from the market at a rate faster than the market is creating it, then we want to be on the bullish side of that trade.

Watch your head!
