  • August CPI is expected to continue to "add fuel" to the market, and the yield on two-year US Treasury bonds has fallen to the lowest point since 2022.

The price of US Treasury bonds rose, pushing the yield on two-year US Treasury bonds to the lowest level since 2022. The US will release highly anticipated inflation data, which may consolidate the market's bet on the extent of the Fed's interest rate cut this month. The yield on two-year US Treasury bonds briefly fell 5 basis points to 3.55%, the lowest level since September 2022. The inflation report, scheduled to be released later on Wednesday, is expected to show a year-on-year increase in US CPI of 2.5% in August, lower than the 2.9% in July.

  • Deutsche Bank warns that the market's expectations of a Fed interest rate cut are too optimistic and that volatility risks will rise.

Deutsche Bank's private banking division warns that volatility is about to rise as the degree of easing by US policymakers may be lower than expected by traders. The Fed may start an interest rate cut cycle next week, with a total of 6 interest rate cuts expected by September 2025. This is fewer than the approximately 9 cuts expected by traders, and Deutsche Bank warns that mispricing could trigger a round of market volatility.

  • Traders are betting that after the Fed's first 25 basis point rate cut in September, there will be two more rate cuts of 50 basis points in the near future.

Traders in the US interest rate options market are still betting that the Fed will cut rates significantly at least once this year, but it may not be before the US general election on November 5th. Before the Fed policy meeting next week, the swap market reflects the expectation of a 25 basis point rate cut, with a very slight possibility of a larger rate cut. However, recent options activity related to overnight financing rates suggests that traders are increasingly preparing for a total rate cut of 150 basis points by January.
