Clarity and ‘Fed Speak’

By Jim Woods

“If I turn out to be particularly clear, you’ve probably misunderstood what I’ve said.”

— Alan Greenspan

The former chair of the Federal Reserve and the concept “clarity” don’t usually go hand in hand, but here Alan Greenspan flips the script on us, implying that his infamously cryptic “Fed speak” was all part of the plan. Remember this the next time you try to decipher the current version of Fed speak.

In case you missed it, I encourage you to read my e-letter column from last week on Eagle Daily Investor about how key sector ETFs performed in Q2 2015. I also invite you to comment in the space provided below my Eagle Daily Investor commentary.
