STIR: Fed Rates Little Changed, FOMC Minutes Likely More Notable Than Fedspeak
Oct-08 10:23
- Fed Funds implied rates are 0.5bp higher overnight for most near-term meetings, holding within yesterday’s range.
- Cumulative cuts from 4.08% effective: 22bp Oct, 43.5bp Dec, 53.5bp Jan, 64.5bp Mar, 71bp Apr and 85bp June.
- SOFR futures also see small moves on the day: H6 with marginal losses (-0.005) otherwise small gains beyond including +0.015 through blues and yellows.
- The SOFR implied terminal yield of 3.045% (SFRH7, -0.5bp) is also within recent ranges, eyeing a little more than 100bp of cuts ahead.
- Today’s Fedspeak focus should be on the FOMC Minutes from the Sept 16-17 meeting. Last month’s meeting revealed a lack of conviction on the FOMC about the rate path forward in both the SEP and then Chair Powell’s press conference.
- The median voter marked down their end-2025 rate 25bps to 3.5-3.75% (i.e. two further cuts in addition to the 25bp cut last month) but 2 members look for 1 cut and 6 members don’t expect another cut this year (and 1 would have preferred not to have cut at all last month).
- Other scheduled Fedspeak looks unlikely to materially add to monetary policy discussions. Nevertheless, for completeness:
- 0920ET – Musalem (’25 voter, hawk) welcoming remarks at community banking research conference
- 0930ET – Gov. Barr (voter) keynote at community banking research conference (text only)
- 1000ET – Goolsbee (’25) opening remarks at Chicago Payments Symposium
- 1515ET – Kashkari (’26) speaks at Center for Indian Country Development
- 1630ET – Kashkari (’26) hosts fireside chat with Senator Tina Smith
- 1745ET – Gov. Barr (voter) speaks on community development
- 1915ET – Goolsbee (’25) speaks at payments conference (text only)
