FILE - In this April 17, 2009 file photo, Federal Reserve Board Chairman Ben Bernanke speaks at the Federal Reserve Sixth Biennial Community Affairs Research Conference in Washington. In prepared remarks to a House committee, Bernanke said Wednesday, Feb. 10, 2010, the Fed will likely start tightening credit by boosting the interest rate it pays banks on money they leave at the central bank. Consumers and companies would then have to pay more to borrow.
