July Pricing Back To Pre-Decision Levels, Holding Larger Increases Further Out

STIR
  • With the presser wrapped up, the takeaway from market reaction is that pricing for the July decision is back unchanged from before the meeting.
  • Meetings later in the year have seen an increasingly small paring of the post-announcement jump with the Dec’23 rate holding 3/4 of the increase seen after markets settled down before the presser (-3bp since presser started, +10bp pre statement/SEP).
  • Powell saying “talking about a couple years out” for rate cuts didn’t have much reaction as the market has already got there.
  • July hike: +16bp having sat at +18.5bp after the announcement, back at the +16bp cumulative pre-decision
  • Terminal: 5.29% in Sep (and 5.28% in Nov), vs 5.32% held after announcement vs 5.25% pre-decision
  • Cuts from terminal to year-end: near unchanged on presser, currently at 8bps vs 15bps pre-decision for a rate that’s 13bps higher than the current effective of 5.08%.
