The cruise into 2025 with two more Fed rate cuts has hit a bit of a (small) pothole.

It was somewhat watered down by the higher jobless claims numbers – the hurricane was a key factor here, but Greg raised a good point:

Secondly … Bostic raised the idea of only one Fed rate cut to come for the balance of this year:

Bostic was the first to hose down expectations of Fed rate cuts in the early part of this year when nearly everyone was screaming for 6 or 7 cuts this year.
