The markets are used to 25 basis points, but if the Fed surprises with 50 points, we might see a reaction similar to a "quick short squeeze" on a collective level. The idea isn’t about the number of points themselves, but the message: Is Powell willing to risk fueling a new bubble in exchange for calming the market now? 🤔
In my opinion, the cut will come in tune with "satisfying everyone without distant promises," meaning enough flexibility to calm the markets... but without giving an overdose that drives speculators crazy.
