☆ The 'coveted soft landing' is here, Biden's top labor official says — and it could set Americans up for an interest rate cut in September
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-08 | by ( Ayelet Sheffey | Juliana Kaplan | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +4 min

Since last fall, the Federal Reserve has held interest rates steady as it continued fighting to get inflation closer to its 2% target. Alongside the Federal Open Market Committee's announcement to hold interest rates steady during its most recent meeting in June, the Summary of Economic Projections penciled in just one interest rate cut for 2024. However, Powell said during the June press conference that there was still time to change that projection — and that a rate cut in September is "plausible." "It's going to be the totality of the data, what's happening in the labor market, what's happening with the balance of risks, what's happening with the forecast, what's happening with growth," he said. CME FedWatch, which estimates market assessments of the probability of interest rate cuts, projects a 93% chance interest rates will remain steady in July and a 72% chance rates will be cut by September.

A weakening economy may help push the Federal Reserve to make more rate cuts this year than the market is currently expecting, according to Lazard. The firm's chief market strategist Ronald Temple said in a second-half outlook that his base case is for the Fed to start cutting interest rates in September, with two additional cuts later in the year. Temple's base case is more aggressive on rate cuts than the current market view. However, Temple says the Fed will be able to lean on the economic data to make a move. Temple did caution that Fed rate cuts may not end up significantly lowering long-term interest rates, which could be bad news for prospective homeowners waiting for mortgage rates to drop.

☆ Euro rises after France's first-round vote, yen struggles

The euro rose on Monday after the first round of France's snap election put the far-right in pole position, though by a smaller margin than projected, while a downgrade to Japan's first-quarter growth figures knocked the yen lower. "They (RN) have actually performed a little bit worse than what was expected," said Carol Kong, a currency strategist at Commonwealth Bank of Australia. The yen struggled to gain ground against a broadly weaker dollar, and was last 0.05% lower at 160.93 per dollar. That could lead to a cut to the Bank of Japan's growth forecasts in fresh quarterly projections due later this month and affect the timing of its next interest rate hike, analysts said. Elsewhere in Asia, the Chinese yuan - also a victim of stark interest rate differentials with the U.S. - was last 0.02% higher at 7.2981 per dollar in the offshore market.
