Vice Chair Yellen put the 6.5% threshold out there in the public domain so it must be time for Jon Hilsenrath to go the way of previous FED mouthpieces. The FED has certainly enhanced its communication skills by indicating policy through the speeches of certain FED Governors. Ms. Yellen, you are the anointed one. (Click on link below to read post.)
