Yellen's emphasizes she will look at a broad range of indicators including inflation, jobless for over 6 months and parttime workers who want full time jobs, and fianncial market developments. The Fed continued to reduce its bond purchases- from $65 billion to $55 billion a month. The Fed said plans were to increase short term interest rates about 6 months after the bond purchases end in the fall of 2014, but to do so very gradually and in small increments. A majority of economists interpreted this to mean the Fed will not increase rates till 2015, especially considering the focus on broad indicators includes other aspects of the unemployment picture that are not included in the unemployment rate.

Boom, bust cycles, with high indebtedness, asset bubbles, and unsustainable current account deficits are followed by long periods of slow or nonexistent growth say Rogoff and Reinhart in their new book. This raises questions about the now current hypothesis that economic recovery will take place in 2011-2013. As the book's title suggests there are long periods in history that show this and it is gaining in credibility as the column by David Wessel in the Wall Street Journal July 21,2011, suggests.

What Other Financial Crises Tell Us

New York Times 03/01/2009
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
