Fed Chair's Dovish Turn Sparks Debate on September Rate Cut Size Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell has signaled that interest rate cuts are imminent, likely starting in September. While he didn’t specify the size or path of these cuts, his remarks at the Jackson Hole symposium emphasized progress on inflation and a focus on labor market health. This announcement has led to lower Treasury yields and a weaker dollar, while boosting stocks. Traders are now debating the magnitude of the first cut and the subsequent easing path, with some betting on a half-point reduction in September. However, recent geopolitical tensions in the Middle East may complicate market reactions when trading resumes. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Oil Market Teeters: US Stockpile Drop Counters Global Surplus Fears READ MORE CBO Report: U.S. National Debt to Exceed $56 Trillion by 2034 READ MORE Inside Job at Toronto Airport Leads to $16.5 Million Gold and Cash Heist READ MORE Japan's ¥9.8 Trillion Currency Intervention Defended by Finance Minister READ MORE Fed's Favored Inflation Measure May Show Softer Rise Than CPI Suggests READ MORE Add a Comment Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
