Fed Kashkari: most likely to keep interest rates unchanged for a long time

Mr Kashkari said the Fed was most likely to keep interest rates unchanged for an extended period of time; to see a marked weakness in the labour market could spur interest rate cuts; if inflation became entrenched, it could raise rates if necessary; a rate hike is not the most likely scenario, but it cannot be ruled out; it takes several positive inflation data to help the Fed start cutting rates. No more than two interest rate cuts are expected in 2024 in the June Economic Forecast Summary (SEP).

Morgan Stanley postponed the expectation of the Fed's first interest rate cut to September.

Economists at Morgan Stanley, citing a "lack of progress" in inflation, postponed expectations of the Fed's first rate cut from July to September.NewscratchersThey still expect interest rates to be cut three times this year by 25 basis points each. Economists such as Ellen Zentner, Sam Coffin and Diego Anzoategui said in a report that the lack of progress since the start of the year meant it would take longer for Fed policymakers to be sure that inflation was continuing to fall towards its 2 per cent target. They expect core PCE at an annualised rate of three and six months to be "close to or below" 2 per cent by the end of the year, in which case it will be "too late" to cut interest rates after September.
