Sceptical

Janet Yellen is discussed mainly through her Treasury debt-management choices and coordination with the Federal Reserve. James Stanley argues that Yellen shifted issuance toward short-term debt, lowering longer-term yields in 2023 while postponing the underlying problem 1. Stephanie Pomboy says Scott Bessent had criticised Yellen’s front-end financing strategy but ultimately had few alternatives and continued it 4. Brent Johnson presents a contrasting example in which Yellen’s 2022 liquidity actions worked against the Fed’s rate increases rather than in coordination with it 3.

Stories it travels in

i

The stories

  • ○ a voice, on the left
  • ◌ a voice raising half of these
  • ● a subject, on the right, under its story
  • ⌒ a line is a voice raising a subject — thicker, more items; colour is the story

The stories this entity travels in: on the right, each story with the subjects seen alongside it; on the left, the voices that raised them, and a line for every subject a voice raised, bundled by story. Tap a voice to light everything it raises, a subject for who raised it, a story for its own lines. The crumb goes back.
