Analysis: The Fed may actually cut interest rates next year, and interest rates are expected to fall slightly by the end of the year

Odaily Planet Daily News Insight Investment fixed income director Brendan Murphy pointed out in a report that US interest rates may decline slightly before the end of this year, but substantial rate cuts will occur next year. Although the economic outlook is weakening, the inflationary pressures brought about by recent US trade tariffs will complicate the Fed's policy response. Against this backdrop, the Fed is expected to take a cautious approach. The agency expects that the Fed will take more decisive interest rate cuts after inflationary pressures ease and growth concerns become the dominant factor in 2026. (Jinshi)
