John Mauldin: What Has QE Wrought?

Now that we have begun tapering, we will soon see lots of analysis about whether QE has been effective. What will the stock market do?

This and a few other dark thoughts crossed my path on a beautiful day in San Diego; so in a very different Thoughts from the Frontline, I offer a number of small gifts rather than an overarching theme, and we will see if we can keep it short.
