“Wealthy money managers bashed Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke’s easy money policies at a closely watched annual investment conference and charitable event on Wednesday. The Sohn Investment Conference, which raises money for pediatric cancer research, gets big name hedge fund managers to share their ‘best ideas’ with other wealthy investors. This year’s conference was sprinkled with criticisms of the Fed’s $85 billion in monthly purchases of Treasuries and mortgage securities in an attempt to stoke the economy.”
