Fed Implied Rates Maintain Mild Reaction To FOMC

STIR
  • Fed Funds implied rates have only inched lower overnight, with slightly larger moves into 2H24 in a continuation of yesterday’s relatively mild reaction to the FOMC decision and press conference.
  • They show cumulative hikes of +4.5bp for Sep (-0.5bp) and +10bp for Nov (-0.5bp) for a terminal of 5.43%, not quite pricing 50/50 odds of the second hike the median FOMC member pencilled in at the June meeting.
  • Cut expectations from the Nov terminal remain in familiar territory: 5bp to Dec’23, 61bp to Jun’24 and 135bp to Dec’24.
  • A heavy session ahead with the ECB decision before a US docket including 1st readings for Q2 GDP and core PCE price index, prelim readings for durable goods/wholesales inventories and jobless claims all before the BoJ overnight.
