The U.S. Federal Reserve Plan For QE3 – And Why It's a Done Deal

BY KEITH FITZ-GERALD, Chief Investment Strategist, Money Morning
When U.S. central bank policymakers conclude their two-day meeting today (Wednesday), there's really only one question investors want an answer to: What's the U.S. Federal Reserve plan for QE3?
Let me answer that for you: QE3 is a done deal - although Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke & Co. might well give it another name.

Let me explain ...

Summer Shakespeare Festival - Stage - Night & Day , Prague

Summer Shakespeare Festival

The Taming of the Shrew, above, is one of nine plays on this summer's program.
Following Czechosolvakia's liberation from communism, President Václav Havel knew his country had a valuable asset to help it get back on its feet: historical sights of interest and beauty. One of his early projects then was to encourage artists to promote Prague Castle by way of Shakespeare performances. As is typical with Havel, what began as a tiny seed of an idea has blossomed into a vital part of Czech culture - celebrated throughout the country and beyond.
From modest and staggered beginnings (A Midsummer Night's Dream in 1990, followed by Romeo and Juliet in 1994), the Summer Shakespeare Festival (SSF) has become the largest and longest-running event of its kind in Europe. This year, no less than eight of the Bard's plays will be performed to a throng that reaches up to 87,000 theatergoers over the course of the season. So how did the festival ever reach these epic proportions?

United Islands - Stage - Night & Day in Prague

London's Archie Bronson Outfit bring their moody, psychedelic garage rock to Střelecký Island Friday, June 24.
Imagine a summer weekend festival on several islands in Prague with some of the most innovative bands from around the world as well as the best local acts. Now imagine that festival is free. Impossible? Not for United Islands.
The United Islands festival returns to Prague June 24 for its eighth incarnation and the largest ever, with 100 bands on seven stages taking over islands on the Vltava for two days and nights of musical refreshment. Best of all, there is no entrance fee for any performance.
Festival Dramaturge Barbora Šubrtová tells The Prague Post that keeping United Islands innovative and popular - last year, the festival attracted more than 30,000 guests - while keeping it free has been a significant challenge that has been met in several ways, including the 100 Kč "Partner Pass," which includes a festival program, a CD and other goodies.
