STIR FUTURES
  • Fed Fund futures imply 224bp of hikes over the remaining six meetings this year (earlier high of 225bp), 1bp above where they peaked after Brainard yesterday.
  • It could be met by 3x50bp and then 3x25bp at the following meetings – above what most analysts have pencilled in.
  • This starts with 46bp for May and 91bps priced for June, implying a greater chance of 125bps than 75bps (24% vs 16%) with 60% chance of 100bps over the two meetings.
  • Harker (2023 voter) speaks at 0930ET. He was in line with the median dot of 7 hikes in 2022 and on Mar 29 didn’t want to rule out 50bp hike whilst waiting to see what happens to inflation and what he hears from liaison programs. Followed by FOMC minutes at 1400ET.
