Go West, young man! Go West! Indeed, the Fed has done just that. Good morning, everybody! Yes, the Federal Reseve has gathered in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, just as it does this time every year, to discuss monetary policy. Fed Chair Janet Yellen is expected to speak later today. Stock futures have faltered ahead of her speech and on Ukraine concerns. A Russian convoy entered Ukraine, sending European stocks lower. Treasury yields lower in safety trade, with the 10-Year at 2.38 percent. The U.S. dollar is firm ahead of Jackson Hole, too. Apart from that, lots of earnings to digest, including Gap and Salesforce.
