Does anyone recall the dates when QE1 started, ended and when QE2 started and is expected to end? It would be interesting to compare those dates against movements in various commodity prices.

QE2 might end in June, according to some, but if the DOW continues to tumble as it has of late, I wouldn't be surprised to see it continued.

Today I read Dr Murphy's article, and looking at the chart, it appears that QE started in Sep 08 through to Feb 10, then paused and restarted in Nov 10.
