Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke had an interesting morning over on Capitol Hill, facing the ire of Ron Paul and receiving Democratic praise from Barney Frank. Bernanke was testifying before the Committee on Financial Services, where he said the economic recovery continues but remains frail, but was put on the spot by Ron Paul who pulled out a silver eagle and accused him of debasing the currency and destroying America’s wealth.


Ron Paul was in full campaign mode. So was Barney Frank. Bernanke was caught in the middle.

In what was supposed to be a Q&A session, the Fed chief essentially sat down and listened to one side bash him and the other love him. Barney Frank took the floor after some softballs by

But Moody's added a "negative outlook" on the grade, saying a historic downgrade could still come if fiscal discipline weakens or economic growth deteriorates significantly.

Moody's had warned of a possible downgrade in July due to fears that the government could be forced to default on its debts without a hike in its $14.3 trillion borrowing ceiling by August 2. After a mad rush to compromise in Congress over the weekend, President Barack Obama signed legislation Tuesday that raised the ceiling and also put forth a plan to slash the country's deficit over the next 10 years.

Bernanke Defends Bond Purchases, Predicts Stronger Growth

By Steve Matthews and Timothy R. Homan - Nov 6, 2010 12:00 AM ET "Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said the central bank must focus on the U.S. rather than overseas economies when trying to spur the recovery by purchasing an additional $600 billion in Treasuries.
“Our first objective, the first goal that we have, is to meet our mandate to get price stability and maximum employment in the United States,” Bernanke said yesterday in response to questions from college students in Jacksonville, Florida. “A strong U.S. economy, a recovering economy, is critical not just for Americans but it’s also critical for the global recovery.”
