Fed Rates Continue To Retrace Post-Payrolls Slide

STIR
  • Fed Funds implied rates have seen a further sizeable push higher today, aided by a continued recovery in equity indices and the NY Fed’s debt report not showing anything particularly troubling for Q2 delinquencies in a further pushback of yesterday’s recession concerns-linked price action.
  • Cumulative cuts from 5.33% effective: 45bp Sep, 77bp Nov, 106bp Dec and 127bp Jan.
  • The Dec’24 implied rate has fully reversed yesterday’s initial risk-off slide and starts to retrace the initial payrolls drop. It has seen 27bp of cuts trimmed since a generally solid ISM Services report, although at 106bp of cumulative cuts it remains some way off ~89bp pre-payrolls.
  • Emergency cut odds are fully back at pre-payrolls levels at just 1.5bps in the August contract.
  • There haven’t been any unscheduled Fedspeak appearances today, with limited post-payrolls appearances sticking to a theme of cautioning an overreaction to a single data print.
  • Scheduled Fedspeak ahead looks particularly light. Barkin (’24 voter) is potentially next of interest on Thu at 1500ET but with jobless claims data likely more of note.
