"Economists are clearly calling for the Fed not to blink, and if anything accelerate the pace of tightening."US S&P futures fell 0.25%, European stocks edged up 0.16% and Britain’s FTSE 100 rose 0.58%. "So it is a fair bet that the Powell speech will take a similar turn today," said Robert Carnell, regional head of Research, Asia-Pacific, at ING.

Sterling fell 0.44% against the dollar after Britain’s energy regulator said energy bills will rise 80% from October.
