Bernanke Sees Case for `Further Action' With Too-Low Inflation - Bloomberg

Bernanke Sees Case for `Further Action' With Too-Low Inflation - Bloomberg:

Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said additional monetary stimulus may be warranted because inflation is too low and unemployment is too high.

“There would appear -- all else being equal -- to be a case for further action,” Bernanke said today in the text of remarks given at a Boston Fed conference. He said the central bank could expand asset purchases or change the language in its statement, while saying “nonconventional policies have costs and limitations that must be taken into account in judging whether and how aggressively they should be used.”"
