In a series of statements, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has been vocal about the need for substantial interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve, calling for a reduction of at least 150 basis points over time and urging a half-point cut as early as the next meeting. His remarks come in light of recent inflation data, which many experts believe leave the Fed little choice but to act. The market has reacted positively, with speculation about a significant rate cut gaining momentum. While futures markets seem skeptical, the prevailing consensus points to a high likelihood of a cut expected soon, prompting discussions among investors regarding its potential impacts on various sectors, including stocks and cryptocurrencies.
