π₯ Upcoming Panel: Jackson Hole Part 2 β The Fed Decision (Sep 18)
How much did Powell pivot, and what are the implications of this key decision?
Inflation Tamed, Employment Stabilized?
Following our Jackson Hole panel at the end of August on September 18th, econVue will host a panel immediately after the upcoming FMOC meeting. We will be joined by members of the Chicago Financial Forum to discuss the Fed decision. Our panelists include Chicago economists and econVue contributors Karim Pakravan, Michael Lewis, and Gordon Parrish. Please join us by registering below.
The consensus of our Jackson Hole panel and participants was that no matter what, the Fed would cut rates 25 basis points. Inflation seems to be moderating, and the jobs report last Friday disappointed, but was it enough of a surprise to make a case for a 50 bps cut? Most often, 50 bps or more is the first cut after a prolonged period of tightening, as per the table below:
Some analysts, such as JP Morganβs Michael Feroli, are calling for a 50 bps cut as well. What do our subscribers think? Please take our poll β£
Introductory remarks by our speakers will be recorded, but the Q&A session will be off the record.
