Fundamental Report: While it was correctly assumed that the Fed would pause rate hikes at last week’s FOMC meeting, the updated dot plot has in a way changed the upcoming scenario. The CME’s FedWatch tool predicted a 99% probability that the Fed would not raise rates this month. However, regarding rate cuts, they revised the number of rate cuts next year from four to two. This unseen revision to the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy sent shockwaves through the financial markets at large. The takeaway from the reduction in future rate cuts was that Federal Reserve members are committed to tackling the high levels of inflation. The new projections indicate that the Fed intends to keep its terminal rate above 5% throughout the entire calendar year of 2024. Gold had been gaining value for the previous five consecutive trading days to Wednesday’s FOMC conclusion. However prices reverted back as Chairman Powell began his opening remarks at the press conference, he holds after every FOMC meeting. This was unexpected and took a day to sink in as seen in the financial markets across the board.
