There is also the US Federal Reserve’s announcement that, if the economy progresses as expected, the last bond purchase from the round of quantitative easing that it began in September 2012 will be in the month after the Federal Open Market Committee’s October 2014 meeting. That kind of news story seems also to affect observers’ thinking, though it is not really much in the way of news, given that everyone has known that the Fed would end the program before long.
美联储也宣称，如果经济进展如预期，那么从2012年开始9月开始的新一轮量化宽松将在2014年10月美联储公开市场委员会会议后迎来最后一次债券购买操作。这类新闻似乎也影响了观察者的观点，尽管实际上这些新闻根本没有什么意义，因为所有人都知道美联储不久就将结束量化宽松。
