On the evening of August 28, Waller delivered a hawkish speech at Jackson Hole:
1. The 2% inflation target will never be compromised. 2. Although recent CPI and PCE data have improved slightly, it does not amount to a material improvement in the underlying inflation trend—so we should not let our guard down. 3. Acknowledge that inflation has been above target for 65 consecutive months in the past; the responsibility lies with the Federal Reserve itself, and it needs to repair the central bank’s credibility. 4. No forward guidance on interest rates—do not give the market commitments about future rate hikes in advance, a timetable for rate cuts, or anything similar; policy will be decided entirely based on the latest economic data as they come out. 5. Assess that the current economy and employment remain very resilient; overall financial conditions are relatively loose and have not produced an effect in curbing inflation—there is no reason to loosen monetary policy too early.
After the speech, market participants generally expect the probability of a rate hike in September to rise from 35% to 68%. Based on this shift, the following time points should be closely watched:
