As predicted the QE3 looms large on the horizon. Good idea? Bad idea? It doesn't matter. Unlike the good folk of Greeceland, you have no say in it. I know you think you understand what it really is and why they are doing it and why the markets seem to like it. Trust me, unless you've seen the following video you really don't understand it. Now before we cozy up for the movie I do want to bring this tid-bit to your attention. People are leaving Greece by the BUS-load. It's true.

Despite today's sell-off we believe this week still holds the potential for moderate volatility.
