Even though two governors favored keeping rates steady in July, it is important to keep in mind that a pause is not a pivot.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Extending the analogy further (and with consideration to those affected by North America\u2019s various wildfires), if the Fed were to abandon its restrictive policies and assiduous rhetorical stance now, it would be like firefighting crews putting away their hoses when a major fire is 80% contained.&nbsp; The conflagration is much more subdued at that point, but the crews don\u2019t stop their work until the fire is out.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is also important to remember how last year\u2019s conference transpired.&nbsp; Investors were hopeful that Powell would offer some respite from difficult market conditions, and instead, he gave a terse speech outlining his resolve.&nbsp; We wrote about it in these three pieces, <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/securities\/macro\/can-goldilocks-in-a-suit-keep-the-bears-away\/\">Can \u201cGoldilocks in a Suit\u201d Keep the Bears Away<\/a>, written the day prior to his speech, <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/securities\/macro\/goldilocks-stop-doubting-my-resolve-to-cool-the-porridge\/\">Goldilocks: \u201cStop Doubting My Resolve to Cool the Porridge\u201d<\/a>, written in its immediate aftermath, and <a href=\"\/campus\/traders-insight\/securities\/fixed-income\/goldilocks-feeds-the-bears\/\">Goldilocks Feeds the Bears<\/a>, written the following Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One thing I failed to appreciate at the time, but I believe to be quite relevant, is that Powell delivered last year\u2019s speech directly to the camera while standing in a prairie.&nbsp; His press conferences avoid outright confrontation with a roomful of reporters, which causes him to offer two sides of a point, and allows the market to focus upon the part of the answer that it likes.&nbsp; In this address there is no one to appease or confront.&nbsp; He makes his points and leaves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was odd to see investors so sanguine ahead of NVDA\u2019s earnings.&nbsp; In contrast, we are seeing some risk aversion ahead of Powell\u2019s speech.&nbsp; Perhaps that will soften the inevitable blow.&nbsp; Or not.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We came into this week with two major \u201cknown unknowns\u201d on everyone\u2019s radar.
