Jackson Hole Symposium and the Importance of Real Interest Rates
The upcoming Jackson Hole Symposium is a significant event where major monetary players, including Fed officials like Powell, will discuss various economic aspects. One key focus will be on real interest rates, which have recently reached their highest level since 2009. Higher real yields can impact the stock market negatively, and the market often struggles to make substantial progress under such conditions. The discussions at the symposium will provide insights into the Fed's thoughts about the economy post-COVID and whether there might be a shift in the natural rate of interest (R-Star) that signifies a potential change in interest rates and inflation expectations.
