Bernanke Speaks - Live Webcast

After the angst that he created when he last spoke, and today's shenanigans after the Minutes, we can only imagine how his presentation at the NBER's Boston conference will impact the markets. We would be surprised if anything new came from Bernanke's presentation on "The Last 100 Years of The Federal Reserve" but the following Q&A (as we noted here) will be trial-balloon after trial-balloon we suspect as he prepares for next week's Humphrey-Hawkins.

Bernanke's prepared remarks on the 100th anniversary of the Fed which are meaningless (just look at the purchasing power of the USD for the Cliff notes), as only the Q&A will matter.

The Bernank should kill himself.
