Fed Refuses To Comment On Yellen's Health
While the world was focused on the content of Yellen's Thursday speech in Amherst for clues on whether the Fed Chair would back off her disturbingly dovish outlook on the world, what was the real surprise was the delivery: as we showed previously, there was a very troubling 100 second interval at the very end of the 50 minute, 5,000+ word speech, in which the 69-year old Yellen suddenly seemed unable to read the words on the page, was rereading the same phrase over and over, paused for long stretches at a time, and then had a violent reaction that forced her to end her speech prematurely. Watch it again below.
In the aftermath of the incident, a narrative was quickly cobbled together that Yellen had suffered from dehydration, but based on her actions and behavior, that seems improbable.
But more disturbing was the Fed's reaction. As the WSJ reports, a Federal Reserve spokeswoman declined Friday to say if Chairwoman Janet Yellen resumed a normal work schedule or sought follow-up medical attention a day after she appeared ill near the end of a long speech in Amherst, Mass. Ms. Yellen returned to Washington on Friday.
The Fed chairwoman, 69 years old, faltered roughly 50 minutes into a lecture on the economy and inflation Thursday at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. She stumbled over her prepared text, paused for long stretches several times, missed and jumbled some words in the text, and coughed before concluding her speech and leaving the stage.
The stumbles were unusual for Ms. Yellen, who has spoken at length in the past at congressional testimony, news conferences and other settings without appearing off-balance.
The Fed spokeswoman, Michelle Smith, on Thursday said Ms. Yellen “felt dehydrated at the end of a long speech under bright lights” and was seen by emergency medical technicians as a precaution, but “felt fine afterward” and attended a dinner on campus.
Bloomberg News reported Ms. Yellen appeared fine after her dinner and flew back to Washington on Friday from Hartford, Conn., telling fellow passengers at the airport that she felt better. “I look good now, don’t I?” she said, according to the news outlet.
Ms. Smith said Friday she didn’t want to comment beyond the Thursday statement.
Why the secrecy? In the New centrally-planned Normal, in which everything is a function of money printing, where the S&P500 is always just one Fed statement away from a crash, and where the head of the Federal Reserve is ostensibly a far more powerful figure than even the US president (a figure whose health is extensively evaluated for suitability ahead of the job), the public has a right and an obligation to know how fit to serve Yellen truly is, because whatever Thursday's two minute swoon was, it was not mere dehydration.
Finally as we showed by the market reaction...
... equity futures most certainly took the sudden concerns about Yellen's health into consideration when making buying and selling decision. Perhaps it is time to discuss just how credible and realistic the Fed's contingency plans are in a world in which Yellen is no longer fit to serve - a world in which former Bank of Israel head Stanley Fischer would be poised to take control over the world's most important central bank?

First to report on Zero Hedge
That cough-puke was one I have made right before my dinner and twelve beers were about to resurface whether I wanted them to or not.
At one point during her "pause" she looked like she was reading and nodding as though she was understanding something that would happen to her or her family if she didn't do as she was told. I think there was a photo of the last person who didn't follow orders.
I think the word we are looking for is hostage! Yikes
It wasn't a stroke......but an orgasm
"I won't cum in your mouth, I promise, we're really gonna raise interest rates this time I promise, no really this time I promise"
Fed watcher porn freaks, always ends the same a mouth full o splooge.
Quick!! Hang her before she drops dead!!!!!
I sure hope it was a stroke. Maybe at her next speech she'll drop dead. It would be like watching an execution. Damn I'm not missing it.
I think she caught herself midway through transformation into her true alien species.
janet and the Pope are twins
Why do these old crows stay in the game so long?
She's 69, she has maybe 10-15 years left to live, yet here she is trying to be some big gumbah in finance. I'm sure she has puh lenty of dough to retire. What a greedy, power mad old hag. I would have retired 5 years ago, were I her. If she vapor locks and dies, she has it coming.
Janet is not in charge of anything. Just a voicebox with wires coming out of her. The real head of the FED operating in the shadows is Stanley Fischer - Vice Chairman helping financially rape and pillage entire western nations. If the distracted citizenry only knew what was being done to them.
From Wikipedia - Fischer was born into a Jewish family in Mazabuka, Northern Rhodesia (now Zambia). When he was 13, his family moved to Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), where he became active in the Habonim Zionist youth movement. In 1960, he visited Israel as part of a winter program for youth leaders, and studied Hebrew at kibbutz Ma'agan Michael. He had originally planned to study at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, but went to the United Kingdom to study after receiving a scholarship from the London School of Economics, and obtained his B.Sc. and M.Sc. in economics from 1962–1966. Fischer then moved to the United States to study at MIT, and earned a Ph.D. in economics in 1969 with a thesis titled Essays on assets and contingent commodities written under the supervision of Franklin M. Fisher.[3][4] He became an American citizen in 1976. He holds dual citizenship in Israel and the United States.
Time for an afternoon klinghoffer cocktail for the wench.

What does this tell you about the system - You go in for a mortgage, some fat-ass banker pushes a few buttons and $100,000 magically appears in your checking account, done in a nanosecond and not a bead of sweat. Ok, so for the next 29 years and 11 months you toil and sweat and make payments on time and God knows how many times that was nearly impossible, but now you can't make that last payment - BINGO, you LOSE your home and it goes to the bank that never did a damn thing to earn that house. Bankers - fuck them all, they can all drop dead as far as I am concerned....
Agreed 100% !!!!!
However don't ever forget why it continues to happen. Because of all the other parasites that get some crumbs from your misfortune. (Mainly public takers) Sheriff. Clerks office. Judges. State office. Realtors. Tax collectors. Etc. etc. etc.....

The CB tribe predicted this back in the day:
"The few who understand the system, will either be so interested from it's profits or so dependant on it's favors, that there will be no opposition from that class." — Rothschild Brothers of London, 1863
Meanwhile they raise your taxes every year until you are bleeding from the ass and some fat ass donut sucking cops and city admin's are living in florida on a pension you are providing them since the age of 52. Fuck all system we have here. Should burn it down now
THE BANK DID NOT EVEN "LOAN" YOU THE MONEY FOR THE HOUSE. THEY CREATED IT OUT OF THIN AIIIIIIIRRRRRRRR.
Sounds like Yellen is getting primed for that government supplied "routine" brain operation like W. Casey was given.
I hear the Pope is in town. Send him over.
Pope? You mean Obama's sock puppet?
If only we could sqeeze the last beat out of her heart as she takes her final breath...
I wonder which one will fold up first, Ms. Yellen or the economy.
You pull it's pants down and you'll see a, VW logo. Just a little software glitch with the granny bot. The nonsense it was spewing didn't compute.
"Fed refuses to comment on Yellen's health". They did, however, comment that now is a good time to buy stawks
FAST....Face arms speech time to head to the hospital. Brain infarction of some sort, and time to get this sorted out and take a break. I'm not a big fan but wouldn't wish whatever her brain problem is on anyone....good luck gal.
The Federal Reserve thinks they're so high above everyone else, it's not a wonder when asked how Fed Chairwoman Yellen was doing they didn't respond by: "We can neither confirm nor deny that Janet Yellen is the Federal Reserve Chairwoman".
Is that a queef at 2:41-2:43?
I was thinking that but then I said "nah, her 4 ply Depends™ would have muffled it".
Pretty sure that was a fart between the coughs.
She forgot to take that formaldehyde cup at the right time ... hehe.
You can laugh me pretty hard but I really think she isnt sick by any means. She just didnt want to make the speech they want her to make for what ever reason.
Old Yeller delivered bad news as far as no rate hike was forthcoming. The only way to mute the reaction to bad news for markets, and America, is to generate a sympathetic response via personal tragedy, or illness. Old Yeller's handlers opted for the latter, and Old Yeller herself acted like a trained seal on cue. And given that she played that card at the end of her speech, we can assume that it was contrived.
Always trust your gut instincts when dealing with politicians & bureaucrats. And if you don't trust your gut instincts then trust mine.
It looks like she's under mind control, just like all the other high freemasons. When a special code is triggered your mind goes blank and that was what happened
This looks like a job for...
Captain COGNITIVE DISSONANCE!
Fly to the sky, my Brother!
Fire Angel
Damn, I was hoping she'd start bleeding from all orifices at any time. One can only wish.
FUCK YOU, YOU FUCKING STOOGE PUPPET!
