📢 Powell’s speech at Jackson Hole could signal a rate cut and influence global markets.
Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell is preparing for a key address at the annual economic symposium in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. According to Odaily, his speech is scheduled for next Friday at 10:00 p.m. Beijing time, on the first full day of the Kansas City Fed’s gathering.
The Jackson Hole Symposium traditionally brings together central bankers, economists, and investors from around the world. For Powell, it is an opportunity not only to present an updated assessment of the U.S. economy but also to give early signals to the markets about potential adjustments to interest rates between the July and September FOMC meetings.
In July, Powell indicated that if inflation continues to decline and the labor market weakens, the Fed may consider cutting rates. This statement has already triggered strong reactions in financial markets: investors are weighing the probability of a rate cut and revising forecasts for the dollar and U.S. equities.
Analysts stress that Powell’s upcoming speech could have a significant impact on market sentiment. A rate cut — or even a hint at it — could support stock indices and weaken the dollar, while a hawkish tone from the Fed could lead to the opposite reaction.
💹 In short, Powell’s address will be one of the most closely watched signals for investors and traders in the coming weeks, setting the tone for financial markets and shaping expectations for U.S. monetary policy.
