So whats the name of the company that prints money for the US? Thats the stock I want to own

[NNN0LHI]

They will have to be going 24/7 to finish the job of printing all that new money.

Who has this contract? Anyone know?

1. The FED. A Privately owned and operated organization.

No stock for you.

[NNN0LHI]

4. Are you sure?

I bet they contract the actual work out to some company.

14. TPTB create it, "insure" it, regulate it, and own it.

You've got a voucher.

2. Crane and Co.

Dalton, Mass. provides the paper.

3. Whoever it is is getting training with that new pennies and those state quarters.

I fully expect Jesus money very soon.

[sarcasmo]

6. Is that similar to Jesus Juice?

[Cresent City Kid]

5. Sorry, don't know for sure, I think it's the government itself

I'm a printer by trade, perhaps there's work for me in this downturn afterall.

7. Actually, Don...

... very little extra money will be printed. Like most of our votes most of the money supply is electronic these days.

8. You mean physically print? The US Mint. But it's not that simple

The Fed doesn't control how much money is literally "printed". They control how many US dollars notionally exist; only a tiny fraction of those are ever printed, and nobody is talking about physically printing more money.

9. The Federal Bureau of Engraving and Printing

10. I'm pretty sure its the US Bureau of Engraving and Printing.

  Everything else, like who makes the special dyes and inks, who makes the paper stock, etc.- I think those are actually national secrets though you might be able to find out which companies bid on the contract. Then look for the company which has been hiring more and more employees and- bingo!

13. I think Crane's supplies the paper for the mint

or they did. But they won't be printing much more physical dollar bills than they have been.

[Irish Girl]

15. I believe only 3% of our money supply is in actual physical paper

The other 97% exists merely as strokes on a keypad.
