I do not claim to have any knowledge of macro economics, but I know, that when a market is flooded with anything, the price goes down. The under $2.00 gallon gas I bought yesterday is a good example. The Feds are flooding the market with money in amounts never dreamed of before.
Here are some brief explanations as to why I would suggest the opposite; inflation. If someone here has a more learned explanation, I would appreciate it. (The last time I studied economics was in the 9th grade)

What Is Inflation? (same source)
Inflation is a quantitative measure of the rate at which the average price level of a basket of selected goods and services in an economy increases over some period of time.

Often expressed as a percentage, inflation thus indicates a decrease in the purchasing power of a nation’s currency.
