Week’s main events (August 21 – August 25)

This week, investors will focus on US Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell’s speech at the Central Bank’s annual conference in Jackson Hole, where he will share his views on the future trajectory of interest rates. Fed executives reiterated that there is still much work to be done in their fight against inflation. Investors should also keep an eye on the People’s Bank of China’s interest rate decision. Chinese banks unexpectedly lowered interest rates last week, and expectations are growing that PBoС will cut the prime rate on Monday. Also, Eurozone countries will publish important data on manufacturing and services PMI that will show the health of the economy during a period of high-interest rates.
