US EARLY MORNING: US equity futures are flat; heavy Fedspeak ahead

US PRE-MARKETS: US equity index futures are trading around flat, while bond yields are rising, with the short-end underperforming ahead of a heavy slate of Fedspeak, which includes a panel discussion with Fed Chair Powell (Powell is due to give remarks on Thursday too), NY Fed's Williams (voter), Fed Vice Chairs Jefferson (voter) and Barr (voter), as well as Fed's Cook (2023). Thus far, there has been some limited pushback from Fed officials after the recent loosening of financial conditions and market participant's raised bets for rate cuts next year (yesterday: Gov. Bowman still sees hikes; Gov Waller did not include any policy recommendations in his remarks; 2023 voter Logan warned inflation was still too high; 2023 voter Kashkari framed his policy response around incoming inflation data; 2023 voter Goolsbee did not want to pre-judge policy meetings amid uncertainties). Powell's remarks over the next two days are likely to provide more steer, traders hope. Elsewhere, the price action in equities has been framed as consolidation after the recent upside (sponsored by the loosening financial conditions), though desks continue to warn that more accommodative monetary policy ahead will only have limited impact in driving further equity upside, given the slowdown of the economy that is expected.
