What happened, for context

Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh delivered his first major speech at the Jackson Hole Economic Policy Symposium on August 28, 2026 (his 100th day as chair). Warsh signaled that the central bank may need to raise interest rates if inflation does not fall toward the Fed's 2% target, while declining to offer explicit forward guidance about future rate decisions. Current PCE inflation stands at 3.7% annually, well above the Fed's objective.
