Will Jay Powell resist pressure from Donald Trump to cut US interest rates?

The upcoming meeting of the US Federal Reserve is expected to maintain interest rates at their current level, despite pressure from President Donald Trump for a rate cut. Investors will closely watch Fed chair Jay Powell’s assessment of the world’s largest economy.

The Fed is scheduled to convene next week, with market expectations indicating minimal chances of a rate reduction from the current 4.25-4.5 per cent range. It is anticipated that there may be two rate cuts by the end of the year, with September being the earliest potential timing for a decrease.

Investors are anticipating that Powell will not yield to pressure from Trump, who has been advocating for a significant rate cut. Powell is likely to adopt a cautious and patient approach during the post-meeting press conference, highlighting the uncertainties faced by households and businesses.

The Fed’s decision will be influenced by recent data, including a lower-than-expected increase in US inflation. Goldman Sachs has revised its GDP growth estimates for the year, citing a smaller impact of tariffs on the economy. The probability of a recession within the next year has slightly decreased, according to the bank.

BoE’s Interest Rate Decision

The Bank of England is not expected to announce an interest rate cut in its upcoming meeting. Recent economic data, including a contraction in the economy and slowing wage growth, will be closely monitored by investors. While inflation rates have fluctuated, the outlook for August remains uncertain.

The surge in global oil prices following geopolitical tensions may complicate the inflation outlook. Analysts predict a divided stance among the Monetary Policy Committee members, with a majority likely to vote for unchanged rates in the upcoming meeting.

SNB’s Interest Rate Decision

Traders anticipate that the Swiss National Bank will reduce its main interest rate from 0.25 per cent to zero, with a possibility of entering negative territory. The decision will be influenced by factors such as negative inflation and currency valuation.

The central bank is expected to prioritize interest rate cuts over currency interventions to avoid trade conflicts. The potential for negative rates is met with some reservations among policymakers, highlighting concerns about deflation and economic stability.

Capital Economics forecasts a significant rate cut due to underlying inflation pressures and external economic factors. The SNB’s decision will be crucial in navigating the current economic challenges.
