6:30pm USD Fed Chair Powell Speaks
Comment: Britain’s jobs report showed an impressive 8.8% increase in average earnings. Pound bulls were likely impressed by the UK’s low Unemployment Rate of 4.7% in June, but less delighted with the meager decrease in jobless claims in July. In the US region, the hawks are gaining ground. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell could alleviate them in a speech late in the day, as he has tended to lean toward the dovish side.
