JPM Asset Mgmt's Tai Hui Foresees US to Have Room for 2-3 Rate Cuts Next Yr
2025-09-18 15:11:19
The US Fed announced a 0.25% rate cut to bring the policy rate down to 4-4.25% as expected by the market, said Tai Hui, Chief Market Strategist for Asia Pacific at JPMorgan Asset Management.

The interest rate meeting this time, however, showed a shift of the Fed's focus from concerns in July about tariff policies pressuring inflation levels to the current weakness in the labor market.

In Hui's estimate, another 0.25% rate cut in the October and December meetings this year appear reasonable, and there will be room for 2-3 rate cuts next year, with US interest rates expected to continue a downtrend over the next 12-18 months, totaling a rate reduction of about 1-1.5%, bringing the long-term terminal policy rate down to around 3%.
