    The manager turned first to an overview of broad market developments during the intermeeting period. Market participants did not materially change their macroeconomic outlooks and continued to interpret data made available over the intermeeting period as consistent with a resilient economy. Investors' expectations for the path of the policy rate, whether market based or survey based, were little changed, on net, over the period. Market participants and respondents to the Open Market Desk's Survey of Market Expectations (Desk survey) generally expected a 25 basis point reduction in the target range for the federal ...

It’s always so weird when you guys run with the same rhetoric he’s liberal because he doesn’t like my lord and savior.

Very good. Be very careful. A more meaningful correlation would be between the change in the money supply and the change in the S&P 500.

I think the Fed has started quantitative easing again to improve the liquidity of overnight Repo markets. Hence the (electronic) printing press again. This I think means likely higher inflationary pressure through increasing the money supply and debasing the currency again. The S&P has increased each year by about the same percentage as the Fed has increased the money supply. It has not really increased in real value just kept up with inflation.

Fed is still hawkish, not dovish.
One cut doesn’t change the stance.
And remember: RMP is not QE — it’s about rate control, not stimulus.

Reserve Management Purchases are intended to supply greater liquidity to the banking system rather than stimulate demand in the economy. However the security purchases by the Fed will be permanent and the monthly Treasury bill purchase amount is predicted to be as high as USD 45 billion per month. This is a lot, and will likely have the same impact on inflation in my opinion, as QE especially as the banking system shows no evidence of needing this degree of extra liquidity.

From the intermeeting, it is clear that rate cute can only be implemented by fomc if inflation goes down.

We have to wait for the data. I think the price of gold will increase when the market opens in the first week of the new year because the foundation of gold has not changed.

No dovish pivot here. The Fed remains restrictive, and a single rate cut would not change the stance. RMP is not QE—it’s balance-sheet and liquidity management, not monetary stimulus. Without a sustained decline in PCE and core inflation, expectations of aggressive cuts are misplaced. Data, not narratives, will drive policy.

I mean what's so bad about cutting rates if inflation converges toward 2%.i think 2 to 3 cuts coming next year if pce confirms the data.
