The Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) has projected that the Federal Reserve will not cut interest rates in January, maintaining the federal funds rate at 4.25%–4.5% throughout 2025.Key Factors Behind the PredictionInflation Trends:December's CPI growth is expected to edge up to 2.8%, slightly higher than November’s 2.7%, as the decline in gasoline prices narrows.Core CPI growth is anticipated to slow to 0.2% month-on-month due to moderated increases in rent and other core service prices.Strong Economic Data:Recent data, including last Friday’s non-farm payrolls, has outperformed expectations, signaling resilience in the U.S. economy.Policy ImplicationsDespite slowing inflation, the robust economic backdrop suggests that the Fed will adopt a cautious approach, holding rates steady to balance inflationary pressures with sustained economic growth. This aligns with RBC’s forecast that no further rate adjustments are likely through 2025. #RBC #FederalReserve #InterestRates #Inflation #EconomicGrowth #CPI #RateForecast #FinancialPlanning

UK 10-year government bond yields have climbed to a 3.5-week high as the Middle East conflict continues. According to Jin10, U.S. Treasury Secretary Besant announced a temporary measure to ease oil supply pressures, which initially caused oil prices to dip before they rose again slightly. The elevated oil prices have heightened market concerns about inflation risks, potentially hindering the Bank of England's ability to cut interest rates. A report from RBC's rate strategist noted that all eyes are currently on the energy market. LSEG data indicates that the UK money market now sees only a 17% probability of a Bank of England rate cut in March, significantly lower than the 83% expectation before the conflict began.#UKBondYields #MiddleEastConflict #USTreasury #OilPrices #InflationRisks #BankOfEngland #RateCut #EnergyMarket #LSEGData #RBC #UKMoneyMarket
