Barclays: The Federal Reserve has continuously cut interest rates this year, while the European Central Bank maintained interest rates this week

ChainCatcher news, according to Jinshi reports, Barclays economists expect the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates consecutively in September, October, and December, although upcoming data may show consumer inflation accelerating. They believe the likelihood of a 50 basis point cut is very low, and the market has already priced this in. Economists predict another rate cut in March and June 2026, with the final rate dropping to 3% - 3.25%. In contrast, Barclays expects the European Central Bank to keep interest rates unchanged this week.
