Nice
β–³pyramidβ–³ this πŸ‘†πŸ”ΊπŸ‘† chart is, n'est-ce pas?

Right now, a 44% majority believe that the Fed will have cut rates by 50 basis points (0.50 percentage point) by the end of 2024.  If they're right, that would put the U.S. Prime Rate at an even 8.00% at year-end.

  • From the May Jobs Report: Year-on-year (Y-O-Y), Average Weekly Earnings advanced by +4.08%, while the reading on Average Weekly Earnings was +3.78%
