El Erian says the market is pricing in too many Federal Reserve rate cuts – ‘overdoing it’

El-Erian spoke in an interview with Bloomberg (gated) Television on Thursday:

• “It is problematic in my mind that the market is pricing in so many rate cuts right now”
• “The market is overdoing it”
• “There’s this notion of a hard landing policy response to achieve a soft landing, that has got to be reconciled one way or another”
• “The market’s going to have to adjust at some point”

El-Erian is forecasting 75 basis points of interest rate cuts by the end of this year.
