🤑 Fed’s Rate Slashing Party: JPMorgan’s Crystal Ball & Morgan Stanley’s Bullish Shenanigans 🌈

by

Ah, the grand theater of finance! Behold, the mighty JPMorgan Chase, with its nose twitching like a hound on the scent of monetary policy, declares the Federal Reserve shall commence its grand loosening of the purse strings next month. 🧙‍♂️✨

The banking behemoth, in its infinite wisdom, prophesies a 25 basis point (bps) haircut during the Fed’s September soiree (16th-17th). The New York Post, ever the eager herald, trumpets this revelation as if it were the gospel itself. 📜📰

But wait, there’s more! JPMorgan, with a flourish of its quill, foresees three additional 25 bps trims in September, October, and December. Lo and behold, the benchmark rate shall tumble a full 1%, landing softly in the 3.25%-3.5% range. Why, you ask? The labor market, once a stalwart knight, now wobbles like a drunkard, giving the Fed the green light to wield its scissors with abandon. 🏗️💇‍♂️

Earlier this month, JPMorgan, ever the Cassandra, warned of recessionary whispers echoing through the economy. May and June’s job growth figures, once robust, were revised downward with the precision of a Gogol character’s descent into absurdity. 📉😱

As JPMorgan dances to the tune of economic stimulus, Morgan Stanley, its fellow titan, casts its gaze upon the stock market’s verdant fields. In a Bloomberg interview, the sage Mike Wilson, chief US equity strategist, declares the market is but in the infancy of a bullish romp that began after April’s “nasty” correction. 🐂🌱

“Ah, the risk/reward,” Wilson muses, “still gleams like a freshly polished coin, where revisions are positive – industrials, financials, and bits of the tech sector – these are the realms where earnings breathe with vigor. Value? Why, it hides in these pockets like a nose in a novel!” 📈💼

“Indeed, there’s treasure to be found, if only one dares to dig!” 🗺️💎
