I don't think the bond/dollar market reaction was the result of a "one and done" thinking. The market reacted to Bernanke's extremely Dovish remark about pausing even in the face of unbalanced risks. I could understand the Fed pausing in the absence of inflationary pressure, to see if growth moderates in the face of an ongoing tightening cycle. But to pause when the inflation indicators are ringing like church bells? CNBC just reported he stated being surprised that the market considers him a dove from those comments. Is he serious?
