After Samuel Lau’s review of markets for month of October (1:29) and the week ended Nov. 3 (2:55) and the week’s macro news (9:25), Jeff Mayberry covers the highlights of Nov. 1 Federal Open Market Committee meeting (21:01) and a sometimes “blunt” and “testy” Jerome Powell during his post-FOMC news conference. Jeff also observes a shift (31:48) in fed funds futures market pricing. Amid signs of a softer labor market, fed funds futures, he says, indicate the possibility of four cuts to the Federal Reserve’s policy rate in the back half of 2024. Looking ahead of the Nov. 6-10 week (34:46), Jeff and Sam will be watching for data prints on consumer credit, jobless claims and consumer sentiment and expectations.
