BlockBeats News, September 10th, Senior Analyst at Swissquote Bank Ipek Ozkardeskaya stated that given the downward revision of U.S. job growth, the Federal Reserve may indeed have fallen behind the curve in trying to anticipate tariff-driven inflation. This means that in the coming months, there may be a larger and faster rate cut, depending on inflation performance.
She pointed out that the U.S. will release August PPI data in a few hours, but the real issue is how much of the continuously rising input costs will be transmitted to tomorrow's upcoming CPI data. The stronger the inflation data, the slower the Fed rate cuts will be, which could dampen investor sentiment. Currently, investors are happy to see a weakening job market in exchange for a larger rate cut. (FXStreet)
