策略师：美联储7月加息可能性不大

Odaily Planet Daily News Investors are increasingly concerned that the Federal Reserve's next policy decision could be a 25-basis-point rate hike, possibly as early as this month, but Phil Orlando, chief market strategist at Federated Hermes, says that scenario is unlikely. “We disagree with that view and expect the Fed to ignore what should be a temporary energy supply shock and keep rates unchanged,” Orlando said. Disappointing U.S. labor market data last week prompted the market to push back expectations for a final rate hike to later this year. Data from the London Stock Exchange Group shows that the probability of a 25-basis-point rate hike in July is priced at 22% in the money market. (Jin Shi)
