Markets anticipate quarter percentage-point rate rise but could swing higher or lower on Jay Powell comments
Like a funnel full of bitumen forever about to drip, the FTSE 100 is oily, dull and ostensibly inert. The FTSE’s up 14 per cent this millennium, so its 7 per cent jump in the month to mid-January caught some level-watchers off guard. UK equities last year made up about 2.6 per cent of the Forum’s members’ total assets under management, down from 4.2 per cent in 2019 and 5.7 per cent in 2016.
US stocks have rallied this year as the Federal Reserve has slowed its pace of interest rate increases and inflation has moderated. Investors expect the central bank to raise interest rates by a quarter percentage point, which would leave the policy rate in a range of 4.5-4.75 per cent. Such a rise would mark a return to a more normal tempo of rate increases after the Fed last year delivered four consecutive 0.75 percentage point increases before decelerating to a 0.5 percentage point rise in December.
