Fed Chair Powell set a new world record at his press conference
ArticleBody
Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell held the shortest quarterly news conference since the Fed began giving them in April of 2011
Gotta love that!
Nathan Sheets, a former Fed economist now at PGIM Fixed Income in Newark, New Jersey comparing Yellen to Powell:
- “When she took these questions, she answered them in extremely exhaustive ways
- Powell’s approach was much more giving what he saw as the most pertinent information.”
Powell was at 43 minutes
- Janet Yellen average was around 58 minutes
- Bernanke’s … about 57 minutes
LOL.
POWell!
