On Wednesday the Wall Street was looking out at the chairman of Fed while he headed to the Capitol Hill for outlining the challenges of trio that the Fed was facing that include economy at the risk of falling down into recessions, confused financial markets and increasing jeopardy of inflation.

“We do face a difficult situation,” told Bernanke to the House members of House Financial Services Committee, smearing the initial day of his two days semi-annual trial on the monetary policy of Fed. “The challenge for us is to balance those risks and decide at any given time which is more serious.”
