She's a good capitalist. She'll continue the slow and steady growth of wealth that is the job of the Fed.

bahahahha!!! welcome to DU!

Must not be your day.
The purpose of the Fed is the slow and steady growth of wealth, which is how it should be. She's not going to do anything radical.
Hopefully she'll slowly end this injecting $85B/mo. Time to let the economy take it's natural course and for the coming inflation to start. Putting it off only makes it worse.
