Federal Reserve Chair Powell to speak at 10am US Eastern time on August 23

Federal Reserve Chair Powell will speak during his regular time slot on Friday morning at Jackson Hole.

It has also been a venue that has been used to offer a fuller explanation of a shifting policy outlook – the timing this year suggests this could once again be the case.
