A few months ago, Ben Bernanke, former head of the Federal Reserve was asked, “The money we’re printing now, will it cause inflation?”

His response, “No.”

“If we’ve learned anything since the government’s response to the last crisis, it’s that quantitative easing or money printing or whatever you want to call it, does not necessarily plant the seeds for higher prices in the future,” writes Michael Batnick.
