Jinse Finance reported that analysts at Danske Bank have revised their forecast for the timing of the Federal Reserve's interest rate cuts, now expecting the next rate cut to occur slightly later than previously anticipated. In their report, they wrote: "A stronger-than-expected January employment report has removed the rationale for a Fed rate cut in the spring, but it does not rule out the possibility of a cut later on." These analysts now expect the Federal Reserve to cut rates in June and September, rather than the previously expected March and June. They anticipate that by then, the Fed will keep rates steady at 3.00%-3.25% and maintain this level throughout 2026 and 2027.
