Everybody Is Waiting For Janet Yellen's Speech

A positive atmosphere remains in the market for the second day in a row. Investors are still continuing to build their expectations based on statistics on the labor market of the US, which were published on Friday. Weak data from the labor market gives hope to the participants of the markets that the FED could stop further reduction of the program of repayment of assets for the time being, and will wait until the situation starts to improve again.

Janet Yellen is going to give two speeches this week, one of them is going to be today, which is quite an important point, as we are going to hear the opinion of the new head of FED for the first time, on the current situation in the country. Hopefully, she is going to give some indicates in relation to the further plans of the FED.
