Dolk earnings as investors climb Fed Fed cutting bets

The land earned this week, benefiting from investors that reduce their bets.

After the weak for July, the disappointing for the same month and the reciprocal tariffs of Trump, the speculation about the fastest rates cuts by the Fed increased, perhaps as the combination of developments mentioned above caused some fears of recession. Investors had a total price in a September rate cut of 25 billion, another from then on, and came to assign a 30% probability of a third before the end of the year.

The data for Julio corroborated that opinion, which shows little evidence of inflation induced by the rate. However, the prices of the producer accelerated sharply, painting a totally different image and confirming the opinion of the president of the Fed Powell that the impact of Trump’s rates on inflation will begin to appear during the summer months. Combined with the strong preliminary for August, this led investors to set the price of several base points in rates cuts. They are now assigning a 70% probability of a September reduction.

After Powell’s speech, focus to activate GDP and PCE data

The Fed Chief is scheduled to speak today in the economic symposium, and it seems that the market is preparing for an aggressive result. In fact, he is not only winning the dollar, but Wall Street is in recoil mode.

However, even if it sounds aggressive and does not previously compromise any action beyond September, market participants can seek greater validation of US data. UU. Next week, which includes the second estimate of the C2 and the data for July, which is due on Thursday and Friday, respectively.

The first ESC estimation reached 3.0% Q/Q SAAR and the expectations are to confirm that. Combined with the 2.3% prognosis of the Atlanta Fed model, add additional credibility to the idea that the Fed should not hurry to reduce interest rates, despite the pressure of the president of the United States and repeated attacks against President Powell. That said, it is worth mentioning that GDPnow Estimation of Atalanta Fed will be reviewed on Tuesday, before GDP data comes out.

As for the numbers, the favorite inflation metric of the Fed is the index, whose correlation coefficient with the, taking into account the last 10 years, is 0.75. Therefore, given that the central ICC accelerated to 3.1% and/and from 2.9%, the risks for the index may be inclined up.

Therefore, more data that suggest sticky inflation could encourage more market participants to put a price of a second rate beyond September for this year.

It is likely that this helps the US dollar to extend its recovery, while the shares could move as a slower pace of rates reductions could be translated into lower current values ​​for high growth companies that are valued with the discount of projected free cash flows.

Is the ECB perform or more rates cuts are needed?

As for the Eurozone, the calendar includes preliminary numbers for August of Italy, France and Germany, which will be launched on Friday. At its last meeting, the ECB held the interest rates without changes, while the Lagarde President seemed more aggressive than expected at the press conference, than combined with the United EU-State trade agreement, the speculation of a prolonged pause in interest rates increased.

Following the preliminary data better than expected for Q2, the even more detailed rate of the objective and the improvement of the flash for August, investors have pricing in only 10 bp in rates reductions for the end of the year. This translates into a 45% probability of another point cut in December. However, the market does not have a total price in a 25 PBS cut even in 2026. Investors are only assigning 72% chance that another cut can be delivered for June next year.

Having all that in mind, if the preliminary inflation data of the largest eurozone economies suggest that inflation is not another confrontation, there may be no need for additional reductions of interest rates if growth related data continue to point to improvement. Euro merchants can assign a lower probability to another rate cut and the common currency can deviate.

Tokyo CPIs enter the center of attention as the possibilities of Boj walk increase

Yen merchants will also have to digest a lot of Japanese data. During the Asian session on Friday, August figures will be published, together with the Nation and for July.

This week, a former Foreign Minister who is rumored among the candidates to become a future prime minister, said that Japan must increase interest rates to strengthen the weak that have increased inflation and brought pain to homes. This promoted the probability of another increase in rates by the BC before a higher end of the year, currently 70%. Therefore, accelerating Tokyo’s CPIs could take that highest probability and encourage investors to be higher, especially if the attachments also reach the positive side.

Canadian soft GDP to increase the probability of Boc cutting

Canada for Q2 will also be launched as the same time with the US numbers. At the beginning of this week it hurt earlier this week, since the softness in the Canada data reinforced the case for more wire cuts by Boc. Currently, investors are assigning a 33% probability of a reduction in a quarter quarter at the next bank meeting on September 17, with that probability increasing to 90% in December. A soft GDP impression can solidify the case of another reduction before the end of the year, thus allowing an additional sale of Loonie.
