Major banks and macroeconomic institutions on Wall Street have begun to increasingly postpone their expectations for Fed interest rate cuts. Particularly after the April non-farm payrolls data, some institutions were seen to have completely abandoned or delayed their previously anticipated rate cuts.
About half of the institutions following the Fed no longer expect any interest rate cuts in 2026. Market commentators note that if the current trend continues, the number of institutions holding the “no rate cut” view could increase further. Analysts point out that the resilient outlook for inflation and the strong labor market are putting pressure on the Fed to keep interest rates high.
