Currently, the global market is facing a major potential risk - the US economic recession. Recently, a series of data released by the United States have been weaker than expected, including manufacturing surveys, job vacancies and private sector employment. This has intensified the market's expectations that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates by 50 basis points instead of 25 basis points at the September 18 meeting. bet. The latest CME FedWatch tool shows a 41% chance of a 50 basis point rate cut.
The closely watched U.S. jobs report for August will be released on Friday, allowing investors to assess the extent of the slowdown in the world's largest economy.
A team led by Barclays strategist Emmanuel Cau pointed out in a report that U.S. employment data is seen as a key catalyst to confirm or deny recession concerns and may determine the future trend of the stock market.
"Federal Reserve Speaker" Nick Timiraos' latest article stated that the U.S. employment report for August, scheduled to be released on Friday, will play a greater role in determining the extent of the Federal Reserve's interest rate cut this month. At the Fed's September meeting, the debate focused on whether to start cutting interest rates by 25 or 50 basis points to prevent unwanted weakness in the job market. The August hiring and employment report will be key to that decision. A decent jobs report could prompt officials to start a possible series of rate cuts with a quarter-point cut. If hiring weakens or unemployment rises, as it did in July, deeper rate cuts will be imminent.
The CICC Research Report pointed out that since July, several weakening economic data in the United States have intensified concerns about recession, which in turn triggered market fluctuations. However, as of today, panic has eased, and it is "certain" that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates in September, and the market has fully priced in an interest rate cut. Contrary to the market's intuitive feeling, the performance of U.S. stocks in the second quarter did not slow down significantly. On the contrary, the overall performance accelerated. However, the internal structural differences revealed the market's concerns and potential pressure points, such as the slowdown in the growth rate of technology companies and the decline in high valuations and Profit-taking becomes a "source of volatility" when there are many cases, low-end consumption slows down as residents pursue cost-effectiveness, and cyclical sectors such as real estate and manufacturing are still bottoming out.
