A hawkish Federal Reserve and firm US inflation pushed Treasury yields to fresh highs. Economists at RBC Economics now see fed funds rising to 4.50-4.75% early next year.
“We continue to expect the US economy will slip into recession in the first half of next year with the jobless rate rising to 5% in the second half of 2023 (the Fed’s Q4/23 forecast is just 4.4%).”
“While we think the economy will ultimately fare worse than the Fed is projecting, we see little reason to push back against its near-term tightening plans. So the Fed’s dovish pivot will have to wait.”
“Our forecast now assumes another 75 bps hike in November followed by a 50 bps increase in December and 25 bps in February.”
“The yield curve is likely to flatten further in the coming months with longer-term yields expected to come down amid a softening economic backdrop and easing inflation, while a still-hawkish Fed will keep the front end sticky.”
