Stocks edging higher in early trading after several Major Companies reported gains and ben bernanke said there was no timetable for cutting down on the bond purchases. In his remarks, ben bernanke said the labor market is improving gradually with employers creating an average of 200,000 jobs a month. But he said unemployment is still too high. Despite these gains, the job situation is far from satisfactory. As the Unemployment Rate remains well above its level, unemployment is still much too high. Jamie dupree joins us via skype with more on bernankes comments. He broke some precedent and released his statements earlier. Any reason for that. Reporter i think they were trying not to spook the markets, tori. In fact, i couldnt believe it when i was driving into work this morning and heard they released it early, they never do that. Theres a big thing we have called a lockup in which reporters, economic reporters, go into a room in the congress and you are given the testimony an hour beforehand but you are not allowed to report on it until the magic hour arrives. Today they let it out early not to spook the markets. Last month when bernanke spoke about when the fed would stop buying mortgagebacked securities and other bonds to help keep interest lows, when word got out they might be changing, the stock market lost a lot of ground. They have since gained it back and bernanke says theres no set date. It will have to be an array of factors about how the market is doing. What does that mean to the investor, if you are not an investor . Whats the bottom line . Reporter the Economic Growth being moderate. The Housing Market is getting even. In the bay area. Its still not even in the country. Even though theres economic job gains over 200,000 jobs each month over the half of year this year, theres still a high Unemployment Rate. Thats why bernanke doesnt see a firm date when they will ease off their help for the u. S. Economy. If the economy grows more, more people might come back into the job market and that may keep the jobless rate elevated even though a lot more people are working. I have to ask, theres always some skeptics. Any political motivation in any of this statement . Reporter no. I think bernanke was trying today with the Early Release of his system and the way he framed it in this hearing to try to get the message out to stock exchanges and the stock market, they are not gonna do anything immediate. They are not gonna pull the plug on this easing. One funny note as the hearing got underway, bernankes microphone didnt work. They were scrambling under his feet trying to get things in order. Even though his printed orders were in order, everyone had a problem hearing him. Have to love those technical difficulties. Thank you, jamie.
