… as an economist (not sure I ever mentioned this but I’m a licensed economist, not that it means much these days heh), I’m not sure this is great news for the long-term perspective of the worldwide economy but for the time being, the fact that the Federal Reserve will continue to be aggressive is good news for the domaining industry and for risk assets in general (for example stocks, as I explained on Monday).
I’m not sure how many domainers are interested in the implications of financial events as far as our industry is concerned but in my opinion, these events should not be ignored.
On DomainingTips, I try to always put a different perspective on the table and since nobody analyzes important events from the perspective of a domain investor, I do it every now and then.
Only for very important events though, that’s why I chose to write about today’s Fed decision. Most economists expected the Fed to start tapering this month, will be interesting to see what happens next.

Like you Andrei, I’m interested in the macro matters too. I’m amazed central bankers think they have the absolute ability to move the economy as they wish, and think there’s no side effect in printing money. With this continued easy money policy and Yellen’s likely to become the next Feb chief, I see a bull market for domains coming. Easy money is good news for speculators. RISK ON!
