Fed Chair Yellen's First Congressional Testimony - Live Feed
We've seen the prepared remarks for both panels:
- Yellen - Fed 'easy' but staying the course on Taper
- Taylor - Fed policy is the problem
- McCloskey - Fed regulation has reduced Main Street access to banking
- Calabria - Fed exit strategy not credible; cause of instability, not cure
- Kohn - Fed independence at risk
So this morning's "Monetary Policy and the State of the Economy" (Humphrey-Hawkins) hearing should be a somewhat contentious baptism of fire for Janet as the Q&A starts.

10 minutes and 1 cat frightened by Yellen's voice later, I had about as much as I can take.
To hell with Yellen, and Congress.
she had no clue what that guy was just talking about. Deer in the headlights.
It ain't over until the fat lady sings.
Yellen is singing.
LOL. We have to allow our banks to make risky loans to other failing countries and their banks, duh!
She seems very unprepared ...
She's a female, what other qualification does she need? hell, we have a president whose only 2 qualifications were a)he wasn't Bush, and b) he was black/
Except that he turned out to be Bush.
And he's hardly even half-black, FWIW.
That's what Gregory Meeks praised Yellen for -she was a woman and apparently a member of an 'oppressed minority'.
He even stated that he wants his daughters to grow up to be like her, and then he backtracked by suggesting that's not why he thinks she was the 'right woman for the job' and praised her 'expertise'.
It was one of those moments where you hear something so incredibly stupid that you cannot possibly have any response harsh enough to match the degree of reprimanding it deserves.
"The Market Reaction" is well prepared, MOAR of the same. Another all time high is so close, at least on the Nasdaq. When they "ring the bell" this afternoon, it could be a significant failure...Volume is a joke so far, good day for an afternoon plunge.
Damn thats one fugly woman, sounds retarded to top it off.
You couldnt bray sand to look like that wedger now could you?
Christ almighty, 310 million folk to pick from, and they chose this monster?
;-
I suspect she frequently snacked on paint chips as a child.
Although most of the retarded people I have known have been good souls nevertheless, not psychopathic monsters like every central banker who has ever stalked the earth.
She seems to be saying a lot without saying anything at all.
She's in good company then.
Time to end the fed bitchez
This guy is reading off a sheet of paper??? LOL ... The font was huge ..
And he also said what can we do for the young people in Europe? Does he mean the ones that "go on holiday" often & even take an entire month off? Book me on the next ship to Mars - fuck this!
Yellen, if you can't determine the cause of the wealth inequality, how about you tell us what you would need to figure that out?

Some guy with a funny accent asked how to reduce unemployment for 18-29 year olds in the US AND Europe. Who gives a flying fuck about European unemployment???? Why is that her problem?????
a) you are apparently unaware of the Fed's direct involvement in propping up European banks
b) you apparently haven't a clue about how crises in Europe can impact the U.S. economy
I'm aware of both, neither of which has anything to do with my question.
Thanks for playing though.
I see Tinky's point about US being affected but wtf when they take a shitload more time off than we do, lol ... fucking comical
"I understand that it's difficult for you to be clear because sometimes that clarity can be misinterpreted by the markets."
LOL
She does not sound that intelligent...but that is probably why she is there....to take it down....but its going to be hard to listen to that voice for the next few years....if I was SNL ...I would be all over it...but then agian..most of the sheeple have no idea who she is so the joke would be missed....but what a comedic charactor.....easy hits....and that Three Stooges hair...hey MO..Hey MO
I just tuned in at 12:21pm EST...she is a retarded bobble head. I would have thunk they'd have hired somebody who could speak without drooling into post of head of Fed even if they are just puppets.
When are they going to replace the FED Chair with Geoff Peterson the Gay robot skeleton?

Everyone reading from the sript provided by the Federal Reserve, eh!
Nobody gives a flying fuck anymore about what the fuck the fucking federal reserve "chair" has to "say". She's just a puppet mouthing the LIES and BULLSHIT ordered by her master banksters.
And here I thought that NOBODY could have as annoying a manner of speach as lispy and mealy-mouthed Bernanke.
I was wrong.
That nose looks awfully familiar.
Wish I had an advanced copy of the script to trade on today
At least there's a moderately attractive gal over Mr. Yellen's right shoulder.
Canya guess which ones the Billy?
:) I see that!
And the ZH Bears take another hit . . . not such a good year after all, eh?
I have no debt, I own everything I have. I make six figures now. I am in the best physical shape of my life. So, yes, its a good year, thank you.
Good for you.
Thanks. It feels good to be a gangsta.
she, or it if you prefer, seems to be channeling Jamie Dimon, are they related by blood (and by blood, I don't mean the blood they feed on)?
Bob Keeshan=Janet Yellen, no?
