Their argument has been based on one thing, that if the US labour market is strong, the Fed isn\u2019t worried about fine-tuning their monetary policy in either direction or keeping it the same, as the labour market is strong.<\/p>\n<p>Traders and investors are increasingly concerned about the Fed dot plot, with the number of interest rate cuts this year being their primary concern.<\/p>\n<p>Following the release of the NFP data, many anticipate a single rate cut this year. Additionally, market participants anticipate a more hawkish stance from some Fed members in the dot plot, potentially indicating a vote for one more rate hike.<\/p>\n<h4>One door closed, one door opened<\/h4>\n<p>Wednesday\u2019s event is important in terms of two possible scenarios.<\/p>\n<p>If the US CPI print fails to impress markets by a significant margin, one can easily assume that the door for three rate cuts will definitely close. A disappointment in the CPI data will open the door, and there is a strong possibility of another rate hike\u2014a scenario that market players haven\u2019t factored in at all, despite its critical importance.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Another Sunak failure<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>While the Russian economy, despite thousands of sanctions, has been able to produce GDP growth of over 3%, Rishi Sunak\u2019s government continues to face more failures.<\/p>\n<p>Thursday\u2019s GDP data brought further bad news for PM Sunak, as the GDP m-o-m indicates that the economy is once again on the verge of entering a recession, with a reading of 0.0%.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the headlines blaming the rainy season for keeping consumers indoors and preventing them from spending, it\u2019s important to remember that the UK isn\u2019t a Mediterranean region, where consumers are accustomed to sunny, bright weather, and when it rains, they tend not to go shopping.<\/p>\n<p>You simply cannot attribute a poor GDP number, which has begun to flirt with recession, to the weather.<\/p>\n<p>The reality is that everyone in the country, whether an average Brit or a business owner, is struggling to make ends meet. The lack of safety in the country is apparent, with London streets becoming unsafe for people to walk on due to the constant threat of phone or bag snatching.<\/p>\n<p>Car insurance and other insurance products are taking more money out of consumers\u2019 pockets, and food inflation continues to remain a huge problem. Sunak\u2019s government persists in its haughty stance.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-83096\" src=\"https:\/\/www.financialmirror.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/20240612-naeem-gbp-usd-1024x433.png\" alt width=\"1024\" height=\"433\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Best CFD Forex Brokers: GBPUSD chart by CompareBroker<\/p>\n<p><em>Naeem Aslam is Chief Investment Officer at\u00a0Zaye Capital Markets.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>The views and opinions expressed herein are the views and opinions of the author and do not necessarily reflect those of Zaye Capital Markets.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Naeem Aslam\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0 European and US futures are trading with extreme caution on Wednesday as traders are reluctant to make any big moves ahead of two important events.
