Slower and Lower?
While the December Fed meeting is all but certain to bring a cut to the policy rate, the outlook for the pace and magnitude of cuts in 2025 could be slower and lower. Wealth Management CIO Katie Nixon parses the latest data in this Weekly Five. |
- How have this week’s CPI and PPI data affected the Fed’s inflation outlook?
- How will the growth and inflation outlooks influence the trajectory of Fed policy in 2025?
- Will weakening growth in Europe, and particularly in Germany, lead to more policy easing by the ECB?
- Have there been reversals in recent post-election trends in global equity markets?
- How is China responding to weak growth and the prospects of a Trump presidency?
