Janet Yellen: première femme à la tête de la Réserve fédérale américaine?

Depuis que Larry Summers a confirmé son retrait, Mme Yellen serait la première candidate de l'administration Obama. Une première pour la "Fed".

 There may be some thought in markets that this may delay quantitative easing tapering, given that Yellen is now the front-runner and she is more dovish,” said Mark Zandi of Moody’s Analytics. “But that will quickly fade. Yellen is cut from the same cloth as Chairman Bernanke and choosing her would signal continuity in monetary policy.”
