Federal Reserve Preview - Fed to Cut in July and September

Since the FOMC meeting in June, when the Fed strongly hinted that it would begin to cut rates, US economic data has significantly outpaced expectations. Nonetheless, the Fed has stuck to its dovish rhetoric, which makes us think that a cut of 25 bps - but not more - on Wednesday is a done deal. The key question now is whether another 25 bp cut will come in September. We believe that it will, as it was not bad data that caused the Fed to turn more dovish, but rather the uncertainty over global economic growth and trade, which persists. We expect the Fed to signal on Wednesday another 25 bp cut in September. Since a cut in September is not fully priced in, this would cause the dollar to weaken.
