STIR: 7bp Of Fed Easing Priced For Jan, UBS Recommend Receiving

Dec-15 13:14

January FOMC-dated OIS moves to price nearly ~7bp of easing alongside the downtick in wider core global FI yields.

  • Implied rates for that event are 2bp lower vs. prevailing levels seen ahead of last week’s FOMC.
  • This comes after the language and communique that accompanied last week’s Fed rate cut wasn’t quite as hawkish as the market expected.
  • Late on Friday UBS wrote “despite unusual uncertainty surrounding US data and aggregate FOMC preferences, we see value in receiving the January FOMC meeting ahead of the Oct/Nov release of jobs and CPI data. Just 5.3bp of easing is currently priced and we would target a move to 13bp”. UBS expects “slightly negative average monthly job growth in Q4 and a moderate increase in core CPI in December”.
