Some of the world’s most powerful central bankers will convene virtually this week, with the focus on any commentary suggesting a pullback in pandemic-era easy money policies from the Federal Reserve.  One challenge: the timeline for slowing the central bank’s $120-billion-a-month pace of asset purchases will be different depending on which Federal Open Market Committee member you ask. The divergence on the FOMC will draw attention to the Fed’s Jackson Hole meeting (which was again moved… Source link

(Adds economic data, economists’ comments) By Ann Saphir and Howard Schneider Aug 20 (Reuters) – The Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City said on Friday its annual economic symposium in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, will take place on Aug. 27 virtually and not in person as planned, the clearest sign yet of the impact of the COVID-19 Delta variant on the Fed’s plans. “While we are disappointed that health conditions will prevent us from being able to gather in person at the Jackson Lake Lodge this year… Source link

NBA Hall of Famer and Chicago Bulls legend Scottie Pippen isn’t holding back anymore when it comes to his feelings about the past. He’s continuing to discuss his infamous decision to take himself out of a 1994 playoff game, and opening up more than ever before. In that game, head coach Phil Jackson drew up the game-winning shot for Toni Kukoc. In an interview with GQ last week — the same interview in which he criticized Kevin Durant and Ben Simmons — Pippen said that he felt insulted… Source link

Phil Jackson is nearly four years removed from his failed tenure as president of the New York Knicks. It appears he has a long list of people to blame for that failure. The former Chicago Bulls and Los Angeles Lakers coach opened up about his time at Madison Square Garden in an episode of “The Curious Leader” podcast, hosted by Coby Karl, one of Jackson’s former Lakers players and the son of George Karl. The one-hour, 43-minute podcast touched on a number of topics, with the discussions… Source link

It’s hard to say one player has more to gain than another with a Super Bowl win. Josh Allen would become a bonafide star with a ring. Aaron Rodgers could make a great argument as the greatest quarterback ever with another one. Tom Brady’s legacy would go an even higher level if he wins one at age 43 with a second team. Other great players like Aaron Donald would see their reputations grow with a Super Bowl. Any player still in the field would cherish a Super Bowl win. But Lamar Jackson… Source link

Lamar Jackson’s biggest problem this season has been what he did last season. Jackson had a phenomenal 2019 season. He was unanimous MVP and deserved it. He set a single-season rushing record for a quarterback and led the NFL in touchdown passes. We might never see that combination happen again. There was also little chance Jackson could replicate that season. The same goes for the Baltimore Ravens, who went 14-2. Everything went right last regular season. Jackson threw touchdowns at an… Source link

Lamar Jackson spent the first three quarters running through the Cleveland Browns – 124 yards and two touchdowns (at least once he got the proper cleats on, of course). Then he spent much of the fourth in the locker room – with many in the audience watching on television and online wondering (and joking) if he was out because of what was running through him. Jackson said it wasn’t what everyone thought, he was actually getting IVs to deal with cramps. That and some stretching. “I… Source link

Deion Sanders is officially head coach at Jackson State, and we now know how much he’ll be making during his tenure in the Southwestern Athletic Conference. Per Sports Illustrated, Jackson’s contract is a four-year, $1.2 million deal with at least $120,000 in annual incentives. He will also receive an automatic extension for an eight-win season. That $300,000 salary is in line with many FCS coaches, which probably makes it a bargain considering what Jackson State is already getting out of… Source link
