Market watchers widely expect Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell to set the tone for a September interest-rate cut in his speech at the Kansas City Fed’s annual Jackson Hole Economic Symposium on Friday.
However, if the speech goes differently, it could threaten the stock market’s recent bounce.
Powell is due to speak on the economic outlook at 10 a.m. Eastern time, following a precedent where Fed chairs almost always give a keynote speech during the high-profile annual gathering that regularly attracts top U.S. and global central bankers. The event runs from Aug. 22 to 24 in Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming.
