Coincidence? I think not.

She deserved another term. Her steady hand is needed in these crazy times. Her only fault was not being a,white male billionaire.

Come back, Janet!!!

Shut up, Janet. You're toast.

Markets don’t like unpredictable and crazy. So now we see the ramifications of Trump’s choices.

I kind of feel sorry for Powell - that's pretty much the worst first day of work ever.

Oops I hit enter too soon:
One of the largest rises in the stock market in any 4 year term.
He called her THE most qualified Chair's in the history of the Fed. And he's right.

Political discussions on DCUM are very sophisticated. It's nothing like talking with the rubes out in the rest of the country!

Seems to me that liberals would rather tank the country than deal with a loss. I’m sorry your crooked doings are having an effect on the market. Perhaps you should stop lying, stealing, and cheating?

Yes, JY is whining all over the place about how she wanted another term. I don't know who put her up to the nonsense, but it is very unbecoming for a woman of her stature.

Feelings do not control the economy. Why do Republicans think that cheerleading is the way to pump up the stock market? The GOP's reluctance to admit the seriousness of the problem in 2008 is half the reason they lost the election.

I hope Janet Yellen is on a beach fist bumping Richard Branson. She did good and got dumped for not being sufficiently beholden to POTUS. Time for her to relax.
