Fed Rates Mostly Look Through Biden After Already Sizeable Further Increases

STIR FUTURES
  • Fed Funds implied rates mostly look through Biden’s debt talks comments aside from a further tick up in June pricing, with larger moves on the day coming earlier after the US open.
  • Cumulative change from 5.08% effective: +5bp Jun (+2.5bp on the day), -0.5bp Jul (+3.5bp), -13bp Sep (+3bp), -32bp Nov (+4bp), -55bp Dec (+5bp) and -76bp Jan (+6bp).
  • As such the June decision is still seen with only a small hiking bias but later rates such as the Dec’23 at 4.53% have now climbed 15bps since Friday’s close and imply just over two cuts from current levels after more than three post-CPI on May 10, with the only notable upside data surprise since then long-term U.Mich inflation expectations.
  • It's back at levels seen May 2 prior to a JOLTS miss after which there was further downward rates pressure from the FOMC.
