Following a brief summer hiatus, FX Talk is back! FX volatility trickled lower throughout August, but the typically quiet summer period was not without its share of intrigue. The dollar was hammered by the Treasury's debt buyback announcement, Kevin Warsh struck a notably hawkish note at Jackson Hole, and bond yields surged globally amid mounting fears over rising government debt and stickier inflation.

We look ahead to what promises to be a blockbuster few weeks in markets. Will the Federal Reserve pull the trigger on a rate hike at its meeting next week? What are the broader implications of the sell-off in debt markets worldwide? And is the yen finally primed for a sustained reversal? Tune in to find out.
