Bernanke wants to see economic data but the only release of note today is pending home sales at 1400 GMT (in an hour).

S&P 500 futures are up 0.6%. Normally, stock would continue to firm up on a dovish Fed but Bernanke’s nagging worries about slower growth could creep in, sparking a slump. There are said to be barriers at 82.50 in USD/JPY but I see scope for a downside move.
