If ending QE2 has as part of its agenda the possibility of driving down the prices of oil, gold, silver, commodities, etc., doesn't it also mean the possibility of driving down the stock market? Seems more than likely. I thought that part of doing QE in the first place was to help prop up the stock market. I think that that's what's been happening anyway. I thought that's what the fed wanted.

Perhaps if a fed announcement of possible QE2 ending does begin to wreck the stock market, they will have a change of plans and go back to propping by revealing some or a lot of what Jim Rickards says is really going on.
