As an investor, I find this rather a good thing. If I have to constantly afraid of recession then I would tend to just wait and sit on cash. If Fed is doing all these interventions including directly buying stock with their trillion dollar war chest + printing press then may be recession can be avoided or at least softened out. I also worry that recession may happen just because people are expecting it to happen even though economy is pretty sound. In that case, Fed intervention can avoid things falling fast just for short time and collective fear can be subsided back to sanity.
