Fed Chairman to Deliver 1st in a Series of Lectures @ GWU today.
Link to video here. Lecture to be given to college students. No telling where this could go.... should be interesting.
Sounded like all he talked about was economic history related to recent issues facing "central banks"..
No operational aspects, policy analysis, etc...
Bernanke is imo an "economic historian".
Probably does not posses Mathematical Maturity.
This leaves him able to brag about returning interest to the Treasury which he believes should be considered to contribute to deficit reduction, and to continuously advocate for "long term fiscal sustainability".
I was monitoring but was in and out.
