Greenspan: Still a Rocky Road Ahead for Fed

“Just remember we had the ‘taper tantrum.’ And we’re going to get another one,” Greenspan said Wednesday at the Global Private Equity Conference in Washington, DC.

“This is a very tough period to get through,” he added about the Fed increasing interest rates. “Normalization is great, but the process of getting there is going to be very rocky.”
