WASHINGTON
Chaussures Vans Sk8 Hi Reissue Leather Noir Blanche , Feb. 11 (Xinhua) -- In her first testimony to the Congress, U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen
reiterated central bank's plan to taper its stimulus exit despite recent
weakness in the economy.
The current economic situation and outlook, as well as the monetary policy, were the main focus of the hearing held twice a year.
Yellen told lawmakers she expected "a great deal of continuity" in the central bank's monetary policy
Chaussures Vans SK8 Hi Reissue Zip Pas Cher Noir Blanche , saying that she served on the Fed policy-setting committee as the bank formulated its current
policy strategy and she strongly supported that strategy.
Yellen, 67, took the oath of office to lead the Federal Reserve System on Feb. 3, succeeding Ben Bernanke

In the public debut in her new role, Yellen said while the economy gained steam at the end of 2013, recovery in the U.S. labor market was "far from
complete," underscoring the importance of considering more than just the
unemployment rate when evaluating the conditions of the labor market.
Her point of keeping an eye on wider range of labor indicators is particularly important as the unemployment rate
Chaussures Vans Brite Old Skool Grise Noir Pas Cher , now at 6.6 percent, is near the 6.5 percent threshold the Fed once identified as the level that would
need to be reached before officials would consider a hike in the interest rates.
"If coming information broadly supports the Committee's expectation of ongoing improvement in labor market conditions and inflation moving back toward
its long-run objective, the Committee will likely reduce the pace of asset
purchases in further measured steps at future meetings," Yellen indicated steady
pullback in Fed stimulus
Chaussures Vans Old Skool Grise Blanche Pas Cher , referring to the Federal Open Market Committee, which sets monetary policy.
While admitting she was "surprised" by the two recent jobs reports that showed the pace of job creation running under what she had expected, Yellen
cautioned against jumping to conclusions of the longer trend. She told the
Congress that the Fed needs to see a "notable change" in the economic outlook to
consider pausing its withdrawal of stimulus.
The Fed trimmed its monthly purchases of Treasury and mortgage- backed securities by a total of 10 billion dollars in both December and January, citing
strengthening economy and continued improvement in the labor market.
The Fed policymakers have suggested they would continue to reduce the bond buying
Chaussures Vans Old Skool Canvas Bordeaux Blanche Pas Cher , which now totals 65 billion dollars a month, at a similar pace at each Fed meeting and end it by
the end of 2014, provided the economy develops generally in line with
expectations.
Yellen also highlighted the Fed's financial regulatory role, saying that the work of making the financial system more robust " has not yet been completed."

PARIS, France, July 3 (Xinhua) -- Iceland's fairytale run at the European Championship came to a crushing end as they were beaten by hosts France 5-2 at
the Stadium of France here on Sunday.
Iceland, who shocked England 2-1 in their last match, found themselves behind after only 12 minutes through a goal from France striker Olivier Giroud. The
Arsenal player ran behind the Iceland back four onto a long pass from Blaise
Matuidi and fired it low past keeper Hannes Halldorsson with his left foot.
