📰 Analysis: The Federal Reserve May Cut Rates Again in September Analysts at Swiss bank Julius Baer wrote in a report that the Federal Reserve may restart its rate-cutting cycle at the #FOMC meeting in September. They stated that the weakening economic outlook suggests the Fed will implement looser monetary policy in the second half of the year. They added that the uncertainty surrounding inflation after tariff increases, along with political pressure from President Trump to cut rates, hindered a rate cut this month. They indicated that stagnation in private consumption and reduced investment plans (indicating softening demand) after July will prove that, despite inflation being above target, reducing the restrictive policy stance is reasonable.
