Fed Rate Path Close To 2024 Dot Ahead Of Payrolls And Hawkish Fedspeak

STIR
  • Fed Funds implied rates have unwound about half of yesterday’s geopolitical risk driven decline, leaving a path close to that consistent with the FOMC’s 2024 median dot ahead of payrolls.
  • Cumulative cuts from 5.33% effective: 3bp May, 18bp Jun, 28.5bp Jul, 46bp Sep and 73bp Dec.
  • Aside from payrolls, today sees a further raft of Fedspeak. We highlight Bowman, who we see with high likelihood as being one of the two dots who didn’t see any rate cuts this year, plus potential post-payrolls reactions from Barkin and a hawkish-leaning Logan.
