In the latest Ben Squared podcast the resident pairing discuss the outcome of the recent Jackson Hole Central Bank Symposium with the star turn from Fed Chair, Jay Powell, the focus. In the debate we reflect on the dovish interpretation from the market whilst offering our own independent assessment of the speech.
