🚨 MARKETS NOW PRICE IN A ~94% CHANCE of a 25-basis-point cut at next week’s Fed meeting — meaning almost everyone expects a rate cut.
📉 The reason? Soft labor-market signals, weak economic data, and dovish signals from Fed officials have pushed expectations into overdrive.
What could this mean if the cut happens:
💸 Lower borrowing costs — easier/cheaper loans, cheaper mortgages, cheaper credit.
📈 Markets & stocks could rally — lower rates tend to boost stock valuations, especially for growth & risk-assets.
🏦 Savings accounts, CDs & short-term yields may dip — less return on cash and fixed-income savings.
But here’s why it's extra-electric — and dangerous:
⚡ Because the odds are so high, markets are already reacting: currency moves, bond-yields dropping, risk-assets surging.
⚠️ That means even a surprise no-cut or a dovish signal could trigger volatility and a sharp drop, as expectations have been priced in heavily.
