About this market
Persistent inflation pressures from Middle East supply shocks, with May CPI at 4.2% and revised PCE projections elevated, alongside a resilient labor market showing 4.3% unemployment and solid May job gains, underpin the 92% market-implied odds against a Fed emergency rate cut before 2027. The FOMC held the federal funds rate at 3.50%-3.75% in its June meeting under new Chair Kevin Warsh, with economists broadly forecasting no easing through year-end amid solid GDP growth near 2.2%. Traders price limited near-term policy shifts, consistent with historical precedent that emergency cuts require acute crises rather than gradual inflation trends. A sharp geopolitical escalation triggering recessionary conditions or a sudden liquidity event could still alter this consensus.
