75bps is 84% implied probability based on the futures market. If they surprise markets it is a big deal, akin to shock therapy. Realistically the news will always be leaked and front-run anyway, so I am not sure it is even possible to surprise markets.

The more interesting question (IMO) would be "what will the Fed signal about the future direction?". I am in the pause to assess impacts camp on that, and the market will treat that as a prelude to lowering rates giving us the melt-up.

I was thinking the same sort of thing!  But thought it would be interesting to see if there were different rate forecasts.  To me it seems 0.75 is absolutely guaranteed.  The next CPI on October the 13th could be interesting too

+75bps, Powell to continue to be hawkish

The US seem to be improving their position, and crushing other currencies and making other economies weak strengthens their hand. Ideally they'd want a situation where the world was begging them to devalue a bit.

I don't think they have the property mania as in many other markets, with the stock market being far more popular, but nobody would complain if that dropped 50%. Whereas for here, value of property is heavily political and motivates votes.

Not going to start a parallel thread but wondering what the BOE will do in response.  Bit of a word salad but I think this means that had it not been for the queen then BOE would have got its rate decision in before the fed but now it will have to take account of them and follow. Wondering if that means a higher rate rise than they would otherwise have got away with. 

"This Monetary Policy Summary and minutes of the Monetary Policy Committee meeting will be published on 22 September 2022.

In light of the period of national mourning now being observed in the United Kingdom, the September 2022 meeting of the Monetary Policy Committee has been postponed for a period of one week. The Committee’s decision will be announced at 12pm on 22 September."

Have to at least match 75bps IMO. Currency under pressure and gilt yields rocketing leaves very little choice.

Unless of course they wantdollar parity:Sick1:

Ideally they want to hint that 75bps is the new 25bps, at least for the next 1 or 2 meetings. Afterall, the UK 2 yr gilt yield is 3.4%, nearly double the BoE base rate! 2x 75bps and an early expectation of a third could be enough to catch up, and stop it running further.

We can dream. In other news: 

Jonathan Savvy, 26, a BTL Strategist from Uxbridge, has launched a Class Action suit against the BOE and FCA for failing in their fiduciary duty to inform him in writing that interest rates can go up as well as down. "There was no investment risk warning for ourselves as entrepreneurs  consumers."

Yes up by .75

The Federal Reserve has unveiled the third 0.75 percentage point increase in US interest rates.

The rise lifts the US central bank's policy rate for the third time to a 3.00-3.25pc range.

The Committee said "ongoing" increases should be expected as it "seeks to achieve maximum employment and inflation at the rate of 2pc over the longer run".
