@Samlunch:What do US companies CEOs think about the Fed's next moves? The majority of US CEOs expect the Fed to cut rates just once this year, according to the April Conference Board CEO Confidence survey. Out of 136 CEOs surveyed, 31% said they do not expect any rate cuts this year while 26% project 2 cuts. Meanwhile, markets are pricing just 2 rate cuts this year as a base case with the first cut in September. Markets have gone from pricing-in 6 rate cuts down to 1 and back up to 2 in just 4 months. The rollercoaster ride continues.
@Samlunch:Markets are currently anticipating the first Fed cut in September and a potential second cut in December. This week's inflation data could shift these expectations backward or forward depending on how the data comes in.

@VirgilLouis:Fed Chair Powell is not making the correct strategic decisions. It all started when he said inflation was transitory, ( just so he could get reappointed to his government job). Now he has raised interest rates too fast, faster than anyone in the history of the US. Of course all of this is due to Biden and his Demo friends giving away money, and running large deficits.$JPMorgan Chase(JPM)$
