🚀 U.S. Treasury Comments Fuel Dollar Depreciation Speculation

According to Odaily, Societe Generale analyst Kit Juckes highlighted in a report that recent remarks by U.S. Treasury Secretary Besant have intensified market speculation that the Trump administration is intentionally pushing for a weaker dollar. On Monday, during an interview with CNBC, Besant stated that a weaker dollar is not a cause for concern. He described currency fluctuations as normal and attributed the dollar's decline primarily to the euro's appreciation. He remarked, "Given Europe's fiscal stimulus, the euro's rise is expected." Juckes believes these comments reflect an internal U.S. government view that a depreciating dollar could help reduce the trade deficit. He also predicted that the euro might rise to 1.20 later this year and potentially reach a high of 1.25 in the future.

🚀 Societe Generale and Standard Chartered See 50bps Fed Rate Cut Despite Market Consensus for 25bps

Key TakeawaysSociete Generale says the Fed has “over-tightened” policy and must act more forcefully.Both SocGen and Standard Chartered expect a 50 basis point cut at this week’s FOMC meeting.Market consensus remains for a smaller 25bps cut, with CME FedWatch assigning just 4% odds to a half-point move.Analysts at Societe Generale believe the Federal Reserve’s “moderately restrictive” stance has been maintained for too long, pushing policy into a state of over-tightening. With inflation showing stickiness but the employment outlook weakening, they argue the Fed’s dual mandate has shifted decisively toward supporting jobs.As a result, SocGen now forecasts a 50 basis point interest rate cut, saying a more forceful adjustment is needed to rebalance risks.They aren’t alone. Standard Chartered Bank is the only other major institution publicly predicting a 50bps move at this week’s FOMC meeting.Market Still Expects 25bps CutDespite these contrarian calls, traders remain aligned with a smaller move. According to CME FedWatch Tool, futures markets currently price a 96% chance of a 25bps cut, with just 4% odds assigned to a 50bps adjustment.The divergence underscores the uncertainty facing policymakers: inflation remains above target, but jobless claims have surged to four-year highs, signaling cracks in the labor market.Why This Matters for MarketsA larger-than-expected cut could:Boost risk assets like stocks, Bitcoin, and gold, as easier liquidity flows back into markets.Pressure the dollar and Treasury yields, accelerating trends already in play.Signal deeper Fed concern over the economy than markets currently anticipate.For now, the debate reflects the delicate balance the Fed must strike between fighting inflation and preventing a hard landing for growth.

🚀 Societe Generale Announces €1.46 Billion Share Buyback Following Strong Q4 Profits

Societe Generale has unveiled a €1.46 billion share buyback plan after surpassing profit expectations in the fourth quarter. According to Jin10, CEO Slawomir Krupa emphasized his commitment to enhancing investor returns. The bank reported a 36% increase in net profit, reaching €1.42 billion, exceeding the anticipated €1.22 billion. Despite this, the bank's stock and fixed income trading divisions underperformed. Additionally, Societe Generale raised its return on tangible equity (ROTE) target to over 10% for this year. These results highlight Krupa's shift in focus from capital preservation to growth and dividends since taking office in 2023. The Paris-based lender remains dedicated to cost-cutting measures, having previously reduced hundreds of jobs and sold assets, including its UK and Swiss private banking operations. Last month, the bank announced plans to cut 1,800 positions in France by the end of next year.

🚀 Societe Generale Strategists Warn of Potential Downward Pressure on GBP Against EUR

Societe Generale strategists have indicated that the British pound may face downward pressure against the euro due to its strong performance earlier this year. According to Jin10, the market had incorrectly anticipated significant interest rate cuts by the Bank of England, leading to excessive pessimism about the UK economy. This misjudgment has recently been corrected, weakening support for the pound. Additionally, they noted that growth expectations in the eurozone are rising relative to the UK, and historically, the EUR/GBP exchange rate tends to follow this difference in growth expectations.
