STIR: Holding Dovish Tilt Seen After Latest Trump-Cook Headlines

Aug-26 10:27
  • Fed Funds implied rates have been held lower overnight by Trump saying he had removed Fed Governor Cook with immediate effect late yesterday.
  • The dovish shift has been pared somewhat with help from Cook again since pushing back, saying he has no authority to fire her and she won’t quit.
  • Cumulative cuts from 4.33% effective: 20.5bp Sep, 33.5bp Oct, 53.5bp Dec, 67bp Jan and 81.5bp Mar.
  • SOFR implied yields are up to 3bp lower on the day (SFRM6) whilst the terminal yield is 2.5bp lower at 3.02% (SFRH7). The latter unwinds half of yesterday’s 4.5bp increase as it remains close to recent dovish extremes, having closed at 3.00% after Powell on Friday.  
  • Dallas Fed’s Logan (’26 voter, hawk) yesterday said she anticipates use of the Fed’s rate ceiling tools in September amidst room to reduce reserves. She added that the Fed should explore ways to avoid overemphasizing the median view on the FOMC in projections.
  • NY Fed’s Williams (permanent voter) late yesterday reiterated that the era of low neutral rates “appears far from over” echoing NY Fed research that he had co-authored published earlier in the day.
  • Ahead, Richmond Fed’s Barkin (non-voter) repeats a speech from Aug 12 on the economy at 0830ET. It will be followed by audience questions but there won’t be a livestream.
