After a stronger-than-expected employment report on Friday, the market will be on guard for a change in tone from Chairman Bernanke as he trudges up to Capitol Hill for a session with Senators today.

Will he change his murky US economic outlook? Not bloody likely.

As much as I and many others would like the Fed to back off and let the economy heal itself, Bernanke will very likely keep any itchy finger on the his monetary hair trigger.

Beware getting too bulled-up on the dollar before the good doctor speaks.
