Powell's Speech Not 'Dovish' as Markets Think, Friday's PCE Will Prove Critical

"Inflation is still here, inflation is still sticky," says Charles Schwab's Collin Martin. He makes the case that the markets put too much focus on the jobs portion of Jerome Powell's Jackson Hole speech, which investors interpreted as bullish for an interest rate cut in September. He adds that Friday's core PCE report can completely flip the Fed's script. Liz Ann Sonders adds to that point, telling investors to look beyond September. She believes Wall Street needs to focus on the long-term impacts of interest rate cuts and what they mean for the economy's health.
