Preview of Coming Attractions

On Friday, Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke will speak at the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston Conference "Monetary Policy Objectives and Tools in a Low-Inflation Environment".

Jon Hilsenrath at the WSJ has a preview: Fed Chief Gets Set to Apply Lessons of Japan's History 
Mr. Bernanke is preparing for a potentially important policy speech Friday, when he could detail his thinking on the Fed's next steps ... The conference is a reprise of a 1999 conference at which Mr. Bernanke and other academics took Japanese officials to task for failing to get their economy moving.
