Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell delivers his keynote speech Friday morning at the central bank’s annual retreat in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.

Powell was widely expected to chart a path forward that includes interest rate reductions as the pace of inflation eases and concerns increase about the durability of the U.S. economic expansion.

In previous years, he has used Jackson Hole to lay out significant policy initiatives and intentions. Markets widely expect the Fed to begin lowering rates in September and continue with a series of cuts through at least 2025.
