Don't miss out on another opportunity to capitalize on market volatility! Investors are eagerly awaiting today’s speech to see if Bernanke will hint at new steps the Fed may take to boost the US economy. If he does outline a plan to stimulate economic growth, riskier currencies like the euro and Australian dollar could see major gains before markets close for the weekend.
