Bernanke left Twisting
From The Sydney Morning Herald:
US stocks slumped, sending the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index to its biggest drop in a month, as the Federal Reserve announced plans to buy $US400 billion of long- term debt and cited risks to the economic outlook.

‘‘There are significant downside risks to the economic outlook, including strains in global financial markets,’’ the Fed statement said.
