Economist: The Fed Will Cut Interest Rates Twice This Year, Timing Will Be in the Second Half

On April 29th, Melanie Baker, a senior economist at London Royal Asset Management, stated in a report that she still anticipates that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates twice in 2025. But this is not expected to happen before the second half of the year when the economy is projected to exhibit clearer indications of slowing down. She pointed out that the risk of a recession has grown, and the global and U.S. economic outlooks have worsened. Nevertheless, she is currently in the "economic slowdown" camp rather than the "economic recession" camp due to the temporary halt of tariff escalation and signs that Trump is responding to market pressures.
