STIR: Slight Hawkish Reaction To CPI, Over 100bp Of ’24 Fed Cuts Still Priced

Aug-14 12:52

Fed Funds futures now price ~37.5bp of cuts for the Sep FOMC & ~105bp of cuts through the Dec meeting vs. ~39.5bp & ~107bp seen into the CPI data.

  • The initial market reaction to the data leaned dovish as the M/M headline and core prints were low in unrounded terms, while the Y/Y headline reading was 0.1ppt below expectations.
  • That move quickly faded, with the previously identified long positioning bias and already meaningful degree of Fed easing priced providing limiting factors.
  • Elsewhere, supercore M/M CPI was virtually in line with expectations, providing further counter to the initial dovish move.
