# Global Economy Threatened by Bromance Between Lagarde and Yellen
An unexpected romance between two powerful women might make hearts flutter, but when it's between the head of the International Monetary Fund and the Federal Reserve, it spells doom for the global economy.
Sources close to Lagarde and Yellen have described their relationship as a "match made in the economy," with the two women quickly bonding over their shared love of economic regulation and monetary policy.
"They're inseparable," said an anonymous source. "They finish each other's sentences, they constantly talk about the importance of market stability, and don't even get me started on how they both geek out over financial derivatives."
Despite their mutual admiration, Lagarde and Yellen's romance is causing global markets to panic. Many investors fear that the two women's combined power could lead to catastrophic economic policies, meant only to fuel their love and not benefit the rest of the world.
"It's like they're in a financial honeymoon phase, and they're more interested in each other than the well-being of the global economy," said financial analyst John Smith. "If they continue on like this, we could be looking at massive inflation, or even worse, a worldwide recession."
Rumors have even spread that Lagarde and Yellen are planning to combine their organizations into one "Superbank" to rule them all, conveniently ignoring the fact that they operate in different countries and have different goals.
The situation has grown so dire that governments around the world are taking drastic measures to prevent the two women from causing any more damage. In the United States, the Federal Reserve has been placed under martial law, with armed guards stationed outside Yellen's office. Meanwhile, in France, President Emmanuel Macron has dispatched a squad of elite gendarmes to protect Lagarde at all times.
Projections for the future of the global economy are grim, with many experts warning of a financial apocalypse if the situation is not resolved soon. We can only hope that Lagarde and Yellen come to their senses and focus on their jobs rather than their romance, before it's too late.
