What is priced into fed funds? Current rate is 1.58% so with that in mind look at the Circled Column this is expected policy rate at each upcoming Fed meeting. By march markets expect fed funds rate to be below 1% which would indicate 2 rate cuts by then ,December implied rate is .575% almost 4 rate cuts being priced by then. A bit aggressive I say and thus plenty of Scope to be disappointed by central bank action.
