    "Everything is fine there is no reason to panic, everything will go on exactly the way it has in the past... just go back to sleep", Ben "thePrinter" Bernanke

    just for giggles to ease the suspense

    meant for a first name but to heck with "rules" eh ....

    https://www.kabalarians.com/Male/Bernanke.htm

    Your name of Bernanke creates an idealistic, sensitive nature and a desire for culture and the refinements of life.

    You would work best in a relaxed environment at tasks involving writing, mathematical, or analytical skills that require concentration.

    You appear calm to others, but at times you suffer inwardly with nervous tension.

    You can find it difficult to express your deeper thoughts and feelings verbally.

    It is much more natural for you to express your deeper thoughts in writing.

    A lack of positivity and confidence is a source of difficulty in making decisions in business dealings.

    He might say:

    It was all just a bad dream, now everything is ok again, spend away and dump all your PMs.

    At least that's how my nightmare went.

    FED: Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke is unlikely to use his speech Friday at
    the Federal Reserve's annual Jackson Hole, Wyo., conclave to unveil new
    efforts to bolster the U.S. economy - despite financial markets'
    lingering hopes that he will, the WSJ says.

    He apologised for destroying the Worlds Economies
    and said he'll try harder next time.

    Yes, AEST is GMT+10, so midnight, if he's on at 1400 GMT.

    I might stay up and watch it - guessing C-SPAN would be the go?

    Stream appears to be here: http://www.moneycontrol.com/tv/

    Bubbles Ben speaking in next couple of minutes by the look of things
