Fed Expect Interest Rates to Fall to 4.60% in 2024, Buyers Pounce!

돈되는 정보

  • Fed Expects Interest Rates to Fall to 4.60% in 2024, Buyers Pounce!
  • The Federal Reserve gives its first clear signal that rates will be cut in 2024!
  • Analysts expect the Federal Fund Rate to decline to 4.50%.
  • The USA100 is close to breaking its all-time highs after rising a further 1.65% since the Fed’s rate decision.
  • The Dollar declined to a 19-week low against the Japanese Yen.

USA100 Close to Reaching All-Time Highs!

The USA100 rose in value for a sixth consecutive day and if the volatility levels continue, the asset will be on track to complete its strongest week of the year. Investors heavily exposed their portfolios to the US stock market and particularly the tech sector. Investors show a clear “risk-on” appetite which can also be seen in bond yields which again collapsed. In addition to this, other safe haven assets, such as the Dollar, fell a whole 1%. The cheaper Dollar and lower bond yields are likely to support the US stock market if they follow the market’s traditional “domino effect”.

The Fed President speech made it clear that the monetary policy will be set to ensure employment remains high and that prices remain stable. The president stressed the importance of keeping inflation stable and not necessarily applying further downward pressure. The press conference reassured many investors and improved investor sentiment. The Federal Open Market Committee’s new forecast points to interest rates declining to 4.60% in 2024, 3.60% in 2025 and 2.90% in 2026. As a result, the cost of debt will decline and consumer demand may rise, supporting companies within the USA100.

In addition to the Fed’s forward guidance, the latest Producer Price Index is also supporting stocks. Producer inflation read 0.00%, which is lower than the previous 0.2% expectation. As a result, investors continue to predict that inflation will remain controlled and potentially decline further in the next 2 months. For inflation to remain stable, investors will also be monitoring oil prices aiming for crude oil to mainly trade below $70 per barrel.

In terms of technical analysis, the price of the USA100 remains within the bullish trend zone of the regression channel. In addition to this, the price trades above the price sentiment line and the trend-based moving average. For this reason, technical analysis indicates an upward trend going forward similar to fundamental analysis. However, most Oscillators indicate the price is “overbought”. Therefore, it is important to consider the appropriate price to speculate the upward price movement.

Lastly, the monetary policy of the Swiss National Bank, European Central Bank and Bank of England will influence the USA100. Buyers and bulls will ideally be hoping for a similar dovish tone. In addition to this, investors will be hoping for higher-than-expected US Retail Sales.


USDJPY – Japanese Yen Takes Advantage of Dollar Weakness

Investors looking to avoid “news risk” may look to the Japanese Yen which is not expecting any major news during this morning’s European and Asian session. The Japanese Yen is increasing in value against all major currencies including the US Dollar, Euro and Pound during this morning’s session. The exchange rate has also declined for three consecutive days and the Dollar Index is trading 0.19% lower this morning.

This week, Japan has released various data regarding the economy and confidence which have read stronger than expected. Thus, the confidence of national business has almost reached two-year highs, which, according to experts, confirms the stability of the country’s economy in the context of the global crisis and gives the regulator grounds to reduce incentives and move to a tighter monetary policy.

The USDJPY is not oversold, similar to other currency pairs, which still gives an opportunity for traders to speculate. Sell signals are likely to arise from technical analysis if the price declines below 141.285.
