Highlights

On another light news day, lots of interest in minutes due at 14:00 ET from the recent FOMC meeting, though it preceded the shockingly weak US jobs report. Investors want to know more about how the arguments from the dissenters were landing with the majority. Of course, there is much more interest in Fed Chair Jerome Powell's Jackson Hole appearance at 10 am ET on Friday.

Fed Governor Christopher Waller, reportedly one of the leading candidates to succeed Powell, is speaking at 11 am ET at the Wyoming Blockchain Symposium 2025 but the topic is supposed to be"payments." Waller actually knows a lot about that topic so it could be interesting in any case.
