Fed's Bullard: watching bond yields closely Apr 5th 2012, 14:35 ST. LOUIS | Thu Apr 5, 2012 10:35am EDT ST. LOUIS (Reuters) - The recent rise in bond yields, while not currently problematic, could spur the Federal Reserve into tightening policy if it became clear that development signaled an inflation risk, a top Fed official said on Thursday. The Fed is currently taking "a lot of risks" with its very easy monetary policy, St. Louis Fed President James Bullard told reporters after a speech. "If the economy started to be a lot stronger, people might put two and two together and say that, 'Maybe we're going to get a lot of inflation.' In that situation, the Fed's got to be ready to take action," he said.
