Welcome to the award-winning Money Distilled newsletter. I’m John Stepek. Every week day I look at the biggest stories in markets and economics, and explain what it all means for your money.

Quick scheduling note: Money Distilled is taking a late summer holiday, so this’ll be your last email for two weeks. I’ll be back on Monday, September 15. Let’s try not to break anything in the meantime.
