In this May 2013 macro discussion, we analyze the implications of the impending end of Quantitative Easing (QE) by the Federal Reserve. The conversation covers the historical context of QE, potential scenarios for the economy, and updates on HiddenLevers features. We explore the current Fed posture, bond yields versus equities, and the possibility of an exodus from bonds.
