Intraday Commentary From Jim Bianco

When the war started (Feb 28), the market was pricing 2.5 cuts in 2026.
Now it is pricing a 43% probability of a HIKE in 2026.


The blue line is what the Fed dot plot communicated at their March 18 FOMC meeting… 2 cuts.

At the April 29 FOMC meeting, the vote was 8 – 4 to not cut rates but keep the ease bias (three voted to eliminate the ease bias, and Miran voted to cut rates). The red and green lines are the path the market is pricing for the Fed.

This chart is Warsh’s number 1 issue ….The market (red and green) is pointing to tightening while the Fed (blue) and Warsh’s statements are pointing toward easing. He needs to get everyone on the same page.
