Odaily News Jan Hatzius, chief economist at Goldman Sachs, remains confident that the Federal Reserve will deliver on its earlier hints of two rate cuts by the end of the year, especially after a weaker-than-expected jobs report last week. He expects that to continue through the first half of 2025. "We expect the Fed to cut rates four times in a row in the first half of 2025, with the final rate falling to 3.25%-3.5%, but we have greater uncertainty about both the pace of the Fed's rate cuts and its ultimate goal next year," Hatzius said in a report published Sunday, adding that his forecast is about 50 basis points higher than the market consensus.
