Analysts at Danske Bank have revised their projection for the timing of the Federal Reserve's interest rate cuts, now expecting the next reduction to occur slightly later than previously anticipated. In their report, they stated, "The stronger-than-expected January jobs report has eliminated the justification for a Fed rate cut in the spring, though it does not rule out the possibility of cuts later in the year."
The analysts now anticipate the Fed will implement rate cuts in June and September, shifting from their earlier forecast of cuts in March and June. They project that the federal funds rate will stabilize within a range of 3.00%–3.25% and remain at that level through 2026 and 2027.
