Good Morning!
Futures in the green at the time of this writing as talking heads focus on yesterday’s Federal Reserve fallout following the 25bps cut and Chairman Powell’s comments during the press conference and their “cautious” stance heading into next year.
From Bloomberg
"US stocks are set for a partial recovery on Thursday, suggesting the selloff after the Federal Reserve’s hawkish pivot was overdone. The yen slid as the Bank of Japan left borrowing costs unchanged.
Futures contracts for the S&P 500 advanced 0.5% following the US benchmark’s biggest lost for a scheduled Fed decision day since 2001. Nasdaq 100 contracts rose 0.4%. Key gauges in Europe and Asia retreated as equity markets caught up with post-Fed moves in the US.
The Fed scaled back the number of cuts it sees in 2025 to two as Chair Jerome Powell said future easing would require fresh progress on inflation. The reaction interrupted this year’s stellar rally in US stocks, with S&P 500 still on course to notch more than 20% of gains due to optimism about artificial intelligence and the outlook for the economy under a Donald Trump administration.
While the severity of Wednesday’ reaction showed that equity markets were less prepared for the Fed’s announcement, the shift implied that profits could be stronger than anticipated in the near term, said Florian Ielpo, head of macro research at Lombard Odier Investment Managers.
“What we have seen is a little cold water poured on what is otherwise a decent economy,” John Bilton, JPMorgan Asset Management’s head of global multi-asset strategy, told Bloomberg TV. “I am constructive about next year. If I’m a bull, I have got to love a healthy pullback.”"
