Inflation ticked up to 3.2% in July, the first increase after a full year of declines. The inflation rate came as a blow to President Joe Biden, who is working to reassure voters that his economic plan is working and he is curbing price pressures, and the Fed, which has been working hard to bring down inflation.
Powell's speech will begin at 10 a.m. Eastern time.
