Welcome back to Traders War Room! Jackson Hole might be a quiet mountain town, but every August it becomes the global stage for Federal Reserve signals. And July is the perfect time to start positioning.

Last year, Powell’s comments moved markets for weeks. This year, with inflation still sticky and rate cuts on pause, expectations are building. Traders who understand how to read the lead-up could catch explosive moves.

How to Trade the Build-Up
Leading into Jackson Hole, watch:

  • Treasury ETFs (TLT, ZROZ)
  • Bank stocks (XLF)
  • Gold and silver (GLD, SLV)

Subtle moves in these areas can signal where the market thinks the Fed is headed.

What to Expect
The Fed isn’t expected to announce anything major but that’s exactly why every hint matters. A change in tone, a comment on inflation, or even a data point reference could tilt expectations for the rest of the year.
