FORCE 61, 68 Hudson & Marshall 21 Bernanke to Miss Economic Retreat in Jackson Hole Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke will not be in attendance at the annual meeting of the world's central bankers in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, this August. According to media reports, Fed staffers say a "personal scheduling conflict" has led their chairman to forego the 37th annual Jackson Hole retreat. The three-day meeting draws some 140 economic leaders, academia elite, and government officials from around the world to the Grand Teton mountain range to mull over monetary policies and assess economic conditions. For each of his last seven years in office, Bernanke has held the spotlight at Jackson Hole with the words he's spoken from the Wyoming town moving markets here in the United States and around the globe. Bernanke's absence from this year's Jackson Hole roster has many speculating he'll leave the Federal Reserve when his second four-year term as chairman comes to an end in January 2014. Fed vice chair Janet Yellen is widely thought to be the frontrunner to succeed Bernanke. 89 Atlanta Communities Real Estate Brokerage, Marc Oppenheimer89 IndiSoft32 Keystone Asset Management IN THE NEWS GEORGIA Acre Group, Michele Calloway 11 LAMCONetwork24 Legal League 100 13, 52-53 LPS Field Services 15 M&M Mortgage Services 19 Metro-West Appraisal Co. 11 National Association of Mortgage Field Services 33 ILLINOIS Elite REO, Angela Robinson 91 37 Mortgage Contracting Services MIDWEST National Field Network 26 National Vendor Management Services 33 PEMCO Limited 29 RE/MAXC3 Safeguard Properties MINNESOTA MinnesotaREO.com95 SOUTHWEST COLORADO RE/MAX Alliance & the Haas Team, Zac Brown 85 TEXAS Legacy Real Estate, Danny Norwood 105 WEST 7 CALIFORNIA SecureView31 Carter & Associates Realtors, Gary Carter 81 ServiceLinkC2 David Murphy Real Estate, Ivery Summers 82 Essex & Harvey, Joyce Essex 82 RE/MAX Partners, Dave Larsen 83 US Best Repair Service 8 Wingspan Portfolio Advisors 5 WASHINGTON ZVN Properties 41 The Marliss Gruver Group RE/MAX Four Seasons, Marliss Gruver109 111
