The U.S. Fed's FOMC decision to continue monthly tapering of bond purchases by $10 billion in Jan 2014
01/29/2014
The decision to continue tapering was made as emerging market currencies in Turkey and Argentina were driven down on currency markets in Jan. 2013. The loss of value for the Turkish lira was attributed to political uncertainty and large current account deficit. In Argentina the loss of value for the peso was attributed to high inflation of over 20% annually. The Fed's Open Market Committee continued gradual tapering to present a clear and consistent signal to financial markets.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
