The Federal Reserves interest rate decision will be announced at 02:00 on September 19 (next Thursday). The interest rate cut is a foregone conclusion, but the extent of the September rate cut remains undecided. The current market generally believes that if the Federal Reserve chooses to cut interest rates by 50 basis points, it implies the risk of economic recession. How do institutions view the extent of the September rate cut, and how do they predict the market trend after the rate cut? Odaily will summarize the answers in this article.

How much did it drop in September? How many times did it drop this year?

Reuters poll: 91% of economists surveyed believe that the interest rate will be cut by 25 basis points, and there will be 3 interest rate cuts this year

A Reuters survey showed that most economists surveyed believed that the Federal Reserve would cut interest rates by 25 basis points at each of the remaining three policy meetings in 2024, and only 9 of 101 economists expected the Fed to cut interest rates by 50 basis points next week .

The jobs report, while weak, was not catastrophic, said Stephen Stanley, chief U.S. economist at Santander. Neither Williams nor Waller on Friday provided clear guidance on the pressing question of a 25 basis point versus a 50 basis point cut on September 18, but both offered relatively benign assessments of the economy that, in my view, point strongly toward a 25 basis point cut.

Sixty-five of 95 economists polled said the Fed will cut rates twice more this year by 25 basis points in November and December after next weeks meeting, compared with 55 of 101 economists polled last month.

Federal Reserve mouthpiece: prefer 25 basis points as a start

Nick Timiraos, the Federal Reserve mouthpiece, said in response to Wallers speech that Waller did not explicitly mention a 25 or 50 basis point rate cut in his speech, but tended to support starting with 25 basis points , and explicitly reserved the option to accelerate rate cuts as appropriate if new data showed further deterioration.

Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation: 50 basis points

Hirofumi Suzuki, chief foreign exchange strategist at Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation in Tokyo, said the slightly weaker-than-expected U.S. jobs report will not prompt the Fed to cut interest rates by 50 basis points at its September meeting. However, combined with past revisions, the result means the Fed is likely to cut interest rates by 50 basis points, depending on indicators after next month.

Nomura Securities: 3 interest rate cuts this year

“Since the Fed has decided to wait, it may need to cut rates more sharply, but the U.S. macroeconomic outlook remains quite resilient,” said Andrzej Szczepaniak , an economist at Nomura Securities. “Now everything depends on the labor market.”

Andrzej Szczepaniak predicts the ECB will cut rates again this month and once more before the end of the year. He said the Fed could also take three actions this year and that markets may be too optimistic that the Fed will do more than the ECB.

The impact on stocks appears to be more related to when expectations of lower interest rates solidify than when they actually happen – so the Feds boost to stocks may be over .

Saxo Markets: 25 basis points, 50 basis points would cause some panic

Charu Chanana, global market strategist and head of foreign exchange strategy at Saxo Markets, said that overall, the message conveyed by global data is very clear, that is, we are entering a period of economic slowdown.

My preference is for a 25 basis point cut, and there is no reason to panic, Chanana said. If the Fed cuts 50 basis points right away, it might cause some panic. I think they will use very dovish language and leave room for a 50 basis point cut in November or December if necessary. A 25 basis point cut coupled with very dovish rhetoric will make up for not cutting 50 basis points now.

How do institutions view the trend after the interest rate cut?

Bitwise: Once uncertainty is eliminated, the market will start to rise

Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan expects cryptocurrencies to see significant gains after the current macro uncertainty begins to dissipate in October and November, saying that markets hate uncertainty, and there is a lot of uncertainty in the market right now.

At this stage, while the market generally believes that the Fed will cut interest rates, the probability of a 50 basis point cut in September has decreased. However, with Wednesdays CPI data and the key Fed meeting next week approaching, the probability of a rate cut of more than 125 basis points by December has increased.

BlackRock: If the interest rate is cut by 50 basis points, it may be a big problem

Jeffrey Rosenberg, senior portfolio manager at BlackRock, 說 the danger is that if the Fed eases by 50 basis points this month, it could signal concerns about the economy rather than reassurance that policymakers are acting in time to avoid a recession.

10x Research: If the interest rate is cut by 50 basis points, it may be a big problem × 2

10 倍研究 說 that if the Federal Reserve cuts interest rates by 50 basis points on September 18, the so-called bullish liquidity easing cycle may have an adverse impact on risk assets including cryptocurrencies.

A 50 basis point rate cut next week could mean heightened economic concerns or a situation where the U.S. is behind the curve in responding to an impending slowdown , leading investors to scale back their exposure to risk assets like BTC and stocks.

MN Trading: Bitcoin valuation is cheap, economic recession will be a bull market catalyst

Michaël van de Poppe, founder of MN Trading , posted on X that he does not think there will be a major crash in BTC in 2024.

We are actually on the verge of the ‘final’ run of the equity bull market, and the likelihood of a major stock market crash is much greater, which could drag down Bitcoin.

But Bitcoins valuation relative to the SP 500 suggests the market may be replicating the 2019-2020 bull cycle, where we fell 35% from all-time highs relative to the SP. This means Bitcoin will rise until March-April 2025, then a period of consolidation/correction, and then rise to 2026, peaking at some point in 2026, depending on liquidity and the macroeconomic competitive environment during that period. Given the impact of ETFs, I also think the estimated price now will be higher than everyone expects.

A recession or weakening economy can be a catalyst for a bull market cycle as investors may seek alternative economic systems.

BCA: Historical patterns show that the economy will decline after interest rate cuts

Peter Berezin, chief global strategist at BCA Research, recently 寫道 investors should prepare for a potential recession in the US economy because the Federal Reserve may not be able to save the economy and investors strategies must change accordingly.

之前， the economy fell into recession within months of the central bank starting to cut rates in January 2001 and September 2007. Even if the Fed does provide more accommodation than is currently priced in, the impact would only be delayed.

If the Fed fails to prevent a recession, the SP 500 is expected to fall sharply, and the P/E ratio will also decline. To prepare for a recession, investors are advised to buy bonds.

近半個月以來，比特幣主網上的兩個智能合約實現OP_NET和Arch引發了廣泛討論。有趣的是，OP_NET這個名字和我們熟悉的OP_CAT非常相似，都是以OP_開頭，非常容易讓人混淆，讓人以為兩者很相似。因此，我想在開頭提一下OP_CAT。首先，OP_CAT是比特幣操作碼。自去年以來，量子貓（Quantum Cats）或大巫師 Taproot Wizards 的創始人 Udi Wertheimer 領導的社群一直呼籲復興 OP_CAT。之所以稱為復活，是因為 OP_CAT 是現有的比特幣操作碼，但中本聰在 2010 年將其刪除，因為它可能會導致潛在的 DoS 攻擊。 CAT 是...的縮寫
