Jackson Hole: What To Expect (1/2)

FED

The main publicly-known events on the Jackson Hole schedule so far are Chair Powell’s speech “Economic Outlook” at 1005ET Friday the 25th, and ECB’s Lagarde speaking 5 hours later.

  • The theme of the symposium, which begins at a private dinner Thursday evening and features speeches/panels Friday and Saturday, is "Structural Shifts in the Global Economy." (MNI's full preview is here.)
  • The full schedule will be released Thursday at 2000ET (0100UK time early Friday morning), which will include the various academic paper presentations.
  • There will be the usual FOMC President TV interviews on the sidelines. We only know of a few appearances at this stage but if previous years are any guide, we will get at least some ad hoc announcements of Thursday and Friday’s TV interviews at some point. MNI will update clients via our IB and Bullets services.
  • Several senior EM central bankers also usually are in attendance.
  • However, not all attendees will be presenting / giving media appearances. BOJ's Ueda will be in attendance but it is unknown whether he will make a formal speaking appearance.
  • The full Symposium website is here (which will include links to papers, livestreams, and schedule):
