Returning To Post-Payrolls Levels As ISM Services Lift Fades

STIR
  • With the dust settled on the dovish Payrolls report and then more mixed ISM Services, there is minimal additional tightening priced ahead with a cumulative 3.5bp of hikes out to a terminal 5.37% in January (-4bp since before payrolls).
  • The weak payrolls report clearly wins out, whilst a reasonable lift in implied rates on ISM services (at first stronger aspects of new orders and prices paid offset the headline miss) has since been limited.
  • For instance, the implied Dec’24 rate of 4.38% is some 3bp higher than just before ISM services but 16bp lower than pre-payrolls levels.
  • That 4.38% compares with the median 4Q24 dot of 5-5.25%, or roughly 5.08% effective, from the September SEP.
