Institutional Perspective
01
Goldman Sachs
Goldman Sachs: Expect 25 basis point rate hike. There is a risk of a pause in the near term, but a premature pause increases the risk that rates will peak higher in the future.
02
SOCIETE GENERALE
Interest rates are expected to remain unchanged, as it is difficult to continue raising rates while inflation is falling. No important adjustments are expected in the policy statement, with the terminal rate expected to be 4.35%.
03
MUFG
MUFG: Weaker U.S. employment and inflation data are needed for the dollar to continue to fall.
