The Federal Reserve will cut interest rates more than expected in 2026, here’s why

Rabobank believes that the Trump administration needs to stimulate the economy before the midterm elections next year to maintain its seats in the U.S. Congress; considering the lag in monetary policy transmission, interest rate cuts must be completed before October to influence the November elections. The Federal Reserve may lower interest rates to 2.75%-3.00% by September 2026, equivalent to three cuts of 25 basis points each. The new chairman is expected to announce the rate cut at the first meeting in June to demonstrate loyalty to the White House. Trump's nominees may form a majority of 4:3 or even 5:2 on the Federal Reserve Board

Bank of America: The Federal Reserve's RMP can lower the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield

Bank of America believes that the Federal Reserve's Reserve Management Purchase Program (RMP) will absorb most of the net supply of U.S. Treasuries over the next year. If the U.S. Treasury chooses to issue more short-term debt to offset the Fed's purchases, the supply of long-term U.S. Treasuries may decrease accordingly, potentially resulting in a 20 to 30 basis point drop in the yield of the 10-year U.S. Treasury compared to its original level
