About QE Total — United States
DEFINITION
QE Total is a financial indicator that measures the total amount of quantitative easing implemented by a central bank in a given period of time. It is a key metric used to assess the level of monetary stimulus in an economy and can provide insights into the overall health of the financial system. This indicator is closely monitored by investors, policymakers, and economists as it can impact interest rates, inflation, and currency values.
WHY THIS INDICATOR MATTERS
This release contributes to the broader macro picture used by cross-asset investors for positioning and risk management. Surprises against consensus can drive short-term moves, particularly when the print breaks an established trend. Released monthly.
WHAT CHANGED THIS MONTH
Latest reading (Jul 2014): actual 25 B. Prior reading (Jun 2014): 35 B. Before that (Apr 2014): 45 B.
WHAT'S NEXT
Sigmacast's 1-month forecast points to a materially lower reading versus the latest print, with the 3-month outlook reinforcing that direction. Both horizons are aligned bearish for this indicator, suggesting a consistent trend signal. Trend-driven dynamics are the primary headwind in the current projection. This indicator correlates most strongly with S&P 500 (Bullish Stocks, r=0.50) — a useful reference for index-focused traders.
