Sep 7, 2011 at 15:41 comment added Tal Fishman While this question rightly focuses on the personal aspects of the SNB's decision, the broader question may be an appropriate topic some day for the Economics SE. If you are interested in the broader question, please consider committing to it!

Sep 6, 2011 at 15:07 comment added George Marian @sharptooth understanding general consequences of such Central bank actions is really important. Agreed. However, what terms would people use to seek out information about such events? Can the question be generalized so that it is not simply about the Swiss franc in this particular situation?

Sep 6, 2011 at 12:47 comment added sharptooth @George Marian: No so localized. That happens once in a while in some form or another. For example, Byelorussia has recently done something similar with its local currency - of course not so many people care because Byelorussia is not a big economy, but understanding general consequences of such Central bank actions is really important.

Sep 6, 2011 at 11:20 comment added George Marian I fear that this question is too localized (in time).
