STIR: Fed Rates Extend Day’s Increase On Variety Of Factors
STIR
- Fed Funds implied rates have modestly extended the day’s increases.
- Cumulative cuts from 5.33% effective: 28bp Sep, 64bp Nov, 103bp Dec, 138bp Jan and 215bp June.
- The Dec’24 rate sits 3bps higher today and Jan’25 4.5bp higher, buoyed by another broadly as expected set of weekly jobless claims data (ruling out sharper deterioration), some hawkish adjustments in ECB pricing and WTI pushing higher.
- PPI inflation meanwhile was mixed, with a beat exaggerated by rounding and offset by negative revisions. Core PCE relevant components were clearly softer than in July although perhaps not wildly different to what analysts had already baked in their forecasts (JPM for example, who had been joint lowest with a core PCE estimate of 0.13% nudged theirs up to 0.14% post-PPI).
