That’s 100% is it not? There’s 0% for current and then a split between the two potential cut amounts.

You're right - I'm so used to looking at the probabilities waterfall diagram where there's always some percent for status quo I glanced right over it not being there.

In the time since I originally posted that the 400-425 basis point level has dipped another 2%, with that amount going towards a 50 basis point cut. Very muddy waters indeed.

Powell has been adamant about fighting inflation so I struggle to understand how the market gives a zero percent chance of status quo.

It got me initially as well!

I’m with you on Powell but I feel like he’s tired of fighting Trump so he’ll throw a cut just to get everyone off his back a bit.
