The FOMC announced no change to their interest rate policy as expected. They expect inflation to remain subdued for some time and pledged to keep rates low for an extended period. While they didn’t quite announce a new round of quantitative easing, they hinted at it pretty strongly and will likely announce a clear program at their next meeting. Read the full Fed statement

Great Panther Commences Surface Drill Program at San Ignacio Mine Property in Guanajuato - "GREAT PANTHER SILVER LIMITED (TSX:GPR - News) (the "Company") is pleased to announce the commencement of a surface drilling program at the San Ignacio Mine property, Guanajuato. The property is located approximately 5 kilometres west-northwest of the City of Guanajuato, where Great Panther operates its flagship Guanajuato Silver-Gold Mine. The property was part of the package purchased by Great Panther in 2005 but, due to the Company's focus on the main mine complex, it has not conducted any work at San Ignacio until this year. The past-producing San Ignacio Mine was put on care-and-maintenance by the previous owners in 2001 due to low metal prices but the infrastructure is still intact." More
