[Institution: The Fed's dot plot may test the market's optimistic sentiment for rate cuts] Golden Finance reported that Elmar Voelker, senior fixed income analyst at Baden-Württemberg State Bank (LBBW), said in a report that the Fed's new interest rate expectations, or dot plots, scheduled to be announced at its meeting next week, are unlikely to keep pace with the current rising expectations of rate cuts. He said: "It seems at least questionable whether the forecast adjustments can keep pace with market expectations." The same is true for the forecast for 2025. Voelker said the dot plot could become a "potential stumbling block to rising bond prices." The market speculates that the Fed may cut interest rates by a large 50 basis points next week, but the bank's recent forecast only suggests a 25 basis point cut this year.
