MONETARY POLICY
The recovery in US equities has faced renewed challenges following Chair Powell’s comments at the Jackson Hole Symposium. In fact, on the day he spoke, the S&P 500 lost $1.24tn in market cap, a notable difference relative to market cap losses during previous 2022 FOMC meetings. While the Fed has taken a hawkish stance for most of this year, Powell’s recent remarks may have been interpreted as decisively hawkish, ending most speculation of a near-term policy pivot.
