[CALENDAR ADDITION] Fed's Kashkari (2026 voter, Hawk) to speak on Bloomberg TV at 08:30EDT/13:30BST

Kashkari sits at the hawkish end of the committee and becomes a voting member on the FOMC in 2026, which gives his remarks more weight for the path from next year onward than the typical rotation-year speech. His prior form has been consistent: television hits of this kind have tended to be vehicle for pushing back against early easing expectations rather than signalling policy change, and single-speaker remarks rarely move the front end unless they break with the committee's prevailing tone. The distinction that matters is whether his language aligns with or diverges from the median voter; commentary echoing the centre is noise, commentary from a future voter that shifts the perceived centre is signal. Worth noting that morning US television slots place the remarks before or around the New York open, when rate and dollar liquidity is thickest and reactions to Fed speak are cleanest. As a calendar note rather than a statement, there is nothing here yet to act on; the substance is what follows.
