The market's expectations were focused on the Fed this week: · US inflation eased by less than expected in January, to 3.1%, from 3.4% in December. Core inflation was 3.9%, up 0.4 points month-on-month due to higher prices in services. · Investors have adjusted their forecasts for Fed rate cuts: · They now completely rule out a cut in March. · And attach 40% likelihood to one in May. · A cut at the June meeting is seen as 100% likely. #WeeklyEconomicUpdate #Markets #Economy #AssetManagement *𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘯𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘩𝘢𝘴 𝘣𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝑝𝘳𝘦𝑝𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘣𝘺 𝘚𝘢𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘳 𝘈𝘴𝘴𝘦𝘵 𝘔𝘢𝘯𝘢𝘨𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵, 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘪𝘯𝘴 𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘰𝘮𝘪𝘤 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘢𝘴𝘵𝘴 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘪𝘯𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘨𝘢𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘴𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘭 𝑝𝘶𝘣𝘭𝘪𝘤 𝘴𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘤𝘦𝘴.

Will inflation finally return to the Fed’s 2% target? At the start of this year, investors bet on multiple rate cuts. However, each CPI report surpassing expectations has forced a rethink, rattling stocks and elevating bond yields to their highest levels since November. Now, all eyes are on the upcoming inflation data. A positive report could reinforce the soft-landing narrative and pave the way for long-awaited rate cuts. But if inflation surprises to the upside once again, stocks and bonds may face further turbulence. Economists are cautiously optimistic, but inflation's capacity to surprise remains a wild card.

#Prediction markets price-in an 80% chance of a #Fed rate #cut in #September after today's Fed decision. The odds of a September rate cut have risen nearly 25 percentage points since July 1st. In every meeting since 2009, the Fed has done EXACTLY what the market was expecting it to do. Is a September rate cut coming? The Fed reiterated their view that they need "greater confidence" that inflation is heading to 2%. However, they also noted that there has been further progress on inflation in recent months. If the Fed cuts rates in September, it would be the first rate cut since March 2020. https://lnkd.in/dwFGZewM

The Fed's stance on rate cuts has been a focal point in financial discussions lately. Despite initial expectations for rate cuts in 2024, recent inflation data has cast uncertainty over the timeline. The upcoming months hold key data points that could sway market dynamics, including core PCE data and first-quarter corporate earnings. Strong earnings have historically buoyed the market, especially for large-cap companies with healthy reserves. As the June Fed meeting approaches, investors should closely monitor economic indicators and corporate performance to navigate the evolving landscape. #USEconomy #RateCuts #Inflation #EconomicIndicators

As we approach the Fed's 1855th meeting today, inflation has historically targeted 2%. But now, the big question is: will the Fed revise projections for 2025? If inflation stays above 2%, this signals deeper, structural challenges ahead—whether due to supply chain issues, wage pressures, or global economic trends. Watching closely to see how the Fed reacts. #FOMC #Inflation #RateCut #FedWatch

The three and six-month data shows that present inflation is now below the Fed’s 2% target, which is why markets expect a 50% chance of a March rate cut, despite the Fed’s insistence that rate cuts won’t begin until the latter half of the year. With each passing month, however, the Fed’s delays become harder and harder to justify, and risk causing a recession and undoing the progress made in engineering the “soft landing”. #inflation #pce #wealthmanagement #CommonsCapital
