Powell's Patience - Just Temporary Relief?

We speak to Vishnu about the Fed and US Equities today. The Fed's Jerome Powell has come out to comment on the possibility of slowing down rate hikes in an attempt to calm markets. We explore whether this is spoken as a temporary relief or is it indicative of the Fed adjusting their monetary policy this year. Apple's revenue forecast cut, trade talks and China's economic slowdown is also on the table of discussion. 

Listen in.
