The Fed has been doing the same thing each time to solve any crisis, print more money. Today we stand at a balance sheet of $7.59 trillion, and markets cannot even handle US 10year bond yields of. These real market yields are calculated from composites of secondary market quotations obtained by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The real yield values are read from the real yield curve at fixed maturities, currently 5, 7, 10, 20, and 30 years. The Federal Reserve - Why US Currency is Not Real Money. Gold and silver are considered real money in most parts of the world. Even in the united states of America, legal tender was backed by gold or silver until 1968 when the Federal Reserve Bank, finally convinced the congress to allow the FRB to remove any kind of real money backing whatsoever.

This chart shows the year-over-year changes in Money Supply ( Monetary Base, M1, and M2 ), in Real (adjusted for inflation) terms, in relation to the S&P 500. Money Supply changes by the Federal Reserve are one of the most important causes of economic trend reversals. Many argue that all booms, busts, bubbles, and crashes are caused by Federal Reserve Money Supply manipulation vis-a-vis the free market. The stock market is dependent on economic trends, so Monetary Supply is an important parameter in stock market timing systems.

Monetary Base (aka 'Money Base', or 'M0') : The total of all currency (banknotes and coins) and commercial banks' reserves with the central bank. This is the narrowest definition of money supply, consisting only of the most liquid forms of money. Think of the Monetary Base as 'M0'.
M1 : Equals the total of all currency, plus checkable deposits and traveler's checks (assets that can be used to pay bills and debts). M1 does not include the bank reserves included in the Monetary Base.
M2 : Equals M1, plus savings deposits, money market deposits, and time deposits less than $100,000. For many, M2 is the figure to watch in forecasting inflation.
