Hawkish tilt under new Fed chair
Amova Asset Management’s Jackson Hole analysis flagged a hawkish tilt under new Fed Chair Kevin Warsh, reinforcing higher-for-longer expectations.
The speech strengthened inflation-first messaging with limited policy surprise, shifting perceived constraints away from jobs despite softer labor data.
