Fed under pressure to cut rates as market turmoil continues

By Economic Times - 4 months ago
The global stock sell-off has spurred calls for the US Federal Reserve to lower interest rates quickly and decisively. Some analysts are now urging an emergency rate cut before the Fed’s scheduled decision in September. Futures markets, as recently as last week, expected a quarter percentage-point cut at the central bank's next meeting. However, data from CME Group now indicate a half-point cut is more likely.
