Henry is heading off on holiday today, so I (Marcus Padley) will fill in for him in the Breakfast Briefing podcasts. Wall Street behaved itself overnight ahead of Jackson Hole and Jerome Powell’s speech tonight.

SPI Futures are up nine points (+0.1%) today, looking like we’ll end the week down around 0.9%.
