The overall tone of the prepared statement and the press conference w ere neutral with no hint at what the September meeting will bring. As usual, the importance of the incoming data in determin ing the next steps was stressed. We expect two additional 25bp cuts this year, with the first cut coming in September followed by another cut in December.
