# Barclays: Expects FOMC to still have differences on the issue of interest rate cuts in September

> Barclays economists pointed out that there are still differences within the Federal Open Market Committee regarding the interest rate cut issue in September. The main question is whether the members believe that the risk balance has shifted from inflation to full employment. Some members may support a rate cut, while the remarks of Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell will have a significant impact on the final decision. If Powell reiterates a tightening stance, expectations for a rate cut may weaken

Barclays economists believe that there will still be differences regarding the interest rate cut issue at the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) in September. "In our view, the main question is whether FOMC members believe that the risk balance is shifting from inflation to the full employment target." These economists stated in a report that members Waller, Bowman, and Mester are likely to support an interest rate cut, while Cook's remarks suggest she may support a rate cut in September. Federal Reserve Chairman Powell, along with members Williams, Jefferson, Barr, and Collins, may align during the September vote, and their views could determine the outcome. If Powell reiterates his hawkish stance from the July press conference at the Jackson Hole meeting, expectations for a rate cut in September may cool. On the other hand, if the communications from voting FOMC members fail to dispel market expectations, this could make a rate cut a certainty
