- EUR/USD drops sharply as the US Dollar (USD) gains ground despite growing speculation that the Federal Reserve (Fed) will continue to opt for a larger-than-usual 50 basis points (bps) interest rate cut in the November meeting, as it delivered last Wednesday, amid growing concerns over job growth. According to the CME FedWatch tool, the likelihood of the Fed reducing interest rates by 50 bps to 4.25%-4.50% in November has increased to 51.7% from 29.3% a week ago.
- On the contrary, the latest Reuters poll to economists shows that the central bank will cut the federal fund rates by 25 bps in each of the monetary policy meetings to be held in November and December.
- Meanwhile, Fed Governor Michelle Bowman issued a statement on Friday explaining why she was against the decision to begin the policy-easing cycle with a 50-bps rate cut. Bowman, which voted to kick off the rate-cut process with a 25 bps cut, said a larger reduction could stoke overall demand given that inflationary pressures have yet not returned to the bank’s target of 2%.
