"Brace Yourself" For The Looming Collision Between Trump And Yellen

• zerohedge.com by Jared Dillian

Trump

Trump hasn't had much good to say about Yellen. He said that her interest rate decisions were politically motivated. Hey, I was saying the same thing at the time. No disagreement out of me. No rate hikes for years, and now that Trump is elected, the Federal Reserve is suddenly keen on hiking with renewed vigor.

But let me tell you—as much as Trump does not like Yellen, Yellen does not like Trump. You couldn't find two more opposite extremes. Yellen is about as cautious and risk-averse as it gets. Trump is like a drunk at the poker table, playing every hand, losing a lot of small pots, then next thing you know you're losing a big hand to him.

I'm not even sure they've been in the same room, and I don't know what would happen if they were.
