In a 2002 interview you stated that it’s impossible to know what the Fed will do. What have you learned since then that makes you a better forecaster and gives you more confidence in your expectations of QE3?

I think most people agree that the Fed and our government want to drive down the greenback to evaporate some of the debt. Do you see the Fed buying up gold to drive down the dollar?
