In the first joint appearance Tuesday, the pair acknowledged the richly valued asset prices in the markets, but said that they are not concerned about financial stability. "I'd say that while asset valuations are elevated by historical metrics, there's also belief that with vaccinations proceeding at a rapid pace, that the economy will be able to get back on track," Yellen said during the testimony. "I think that in an environment where asset prices are high, that what's important is for regulators to make sure that the financial sector is resilient and to make sure that markets work well." Powell said that the economic recovery from the pandemic had "progressed more quickly than generally expected and looks to be strengthening." However, he said that the sectors of the economy hardest-hit by the pandemic "remain weak" and the unemployment rate "underestimates the shortfall," so the recovery still had a long way to go. Treasury yields dipped on Tuesday with the 10-year Treasury yield hovering around 1.62%. General Mills, Tencent, KB Homes and RH are among the companies reporting earnings on Wednesday.
