Bank of America: 'BofA Economists are the Market Outlier in their Call for an October Hike'

By eFXdata  —  Oct 27 - 11:30 AM

Bank of America Global Research previews tomorrow's October FOMC decision.

"BofA economists are the market outlier in their call for an Oct hike.. We agree the Fed should hike, but markets price a Fed willing to wait until after the election, especially given rising credit risks. Ultimately, persistent inflation could drive further Fed tightening," BofA notes

"USD risks skew to the downside on a hold. A convincing, hawkish hold could leave the USD and rates broadly near current levels, while a dovish or poorly explained hold risks renewed Fed credibility concerns, bear steepening in 2s30s and potentially significant USD weakness," BofA adds.
