Fed Implied Rates Buoyed By Bowman

STIR
  • Fed Funds implied rates have reversed most of Friday’s payrolls-related drop for Sept and Nov meetings and unwound up to half of the much larger drop further into 2024, buoyed by a hawkish Bowman (voter) over the weekend and with limited impact from a characteristically dovish NY Fed’s Williams (voter) earlier today.
  • Cumulative hikes from 5.33% effective: +4bp Sep (+1bp from Fri close), +9bp Nov to 5.42% terminal (+2bp).
  • Cuts from Nov terminal: 3bp to Dec’23 (from 4bp), 60bp to Jun’24 (from 65bp) and 131bp to Dec’24 (from 139bp).
  • Bowman expects additional rate “increases” whilst Williams sees the need to hike further as “an open question”. Bowman speaks again along with Bostic at a Fed Listens event at 0830ET. Recall Bostic has already spoken after Friday’s payrolls data, noting it was largely as expected and having previously not seen the need for a Sept hike and with rate cuts not starting until 2H24 at the earliest.
