Just when I thought Ben Bernanke couldn't be more of a putz…
"The dollar surged on Tuesday after Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke warned the weak U.S. currency posed a risk to inflation, adding to views the central bank could raise interest rates later this year."
Say what?! I'm not economics expert, but last I checked the Fed's willy-nilly printing money out of thin air contributed to the weak dollar, which in turn contributed to inflation - not the other way around. And people wonder why I don't trust the Fed…
