I posted on the outlook for the Federal Reserve from Boa / ML here earlier:

Looking across a few other notes for the FOMC. This via NAB, in brief:

  • recent data suggest some upside risk to our Q2 GDP forecast
  • business surveys point to a slowing economy

Fed is getting ready to cut rates

  • we expect two 25bp reductions … July and September now the most likely dates
  • considerable event risk around these projections - including the upcoming meeting between the US and Chinese Presidents
  • Risks still appear slanted towards the Fed making more rather than fewer cuts
