The Fed's annual monetary policy symposium (organized by the Federal Reserve of Kansas City) will be on August 23 to 25

The theme this year is on "Changing Market Structure and Implications for Monetary Policy"

  • It will be attended by the elite of the global central banking world and various other big wigs (I think my invitation might have got lost in the mail)
  • Usually the head of the Fed, the ECB and BOJ attend, along with BoE and so forth.
  • Janet Yellen didn't always go though, and there has yet to be confirmation that FOMC Chair Powell will be appearing

So, just a heads up (its a big deal as the Jackson Hole Symposium has been used in the past for the Fed to signal policy change).
