Goldman Sachs expects the Federal Reserve to begin cutting rates in September, projecting three straight 25 basis point reductions.

However, the bank says a larger 50bp cut is possible if the next jobs report shows a further rise in unemployment.

Earlier:

Daly swinging a little more dovish:

• Fed’s Daly says two FOMC rate cuts in 2025 seem appropriate

But, don’t abandon a viewpoint that carefully assesses what was said:

• Fed’s Daly comments – be careful of the narratives pundits are choosing

Also, Williams spoke, as I posted on the weekend, and I’m not seeing a lot on this:

• Fed’s Williams say’s he’ll have “very much an open mind” on September meeting rate cut
• Weekend Fed Williams – “very much an open mind” on September rate cut. I have comments!

Not everyone agrees on a September rate cut:

• BoA stick with Fed rate hold call despite market pricing in September cut on weak job data

BoA’s call is looking more and more ‘brave’.
