<h2>Kennedy Manley:</h2>
<p>At the June Fed meeting, the Fed held policy rates steady as expected. However, it was the committee's Summary of Economic Projections, or forecasts on U.S. growth, inflation, and policy rates that garnered markets' attention. So, let's discuss these changes and what it may mean for investors.</p>
<h2>On screen:</h2>
<p>Another question appears over gray: <strong>What does this mean for the economy?</strong></p>
<h2>Kennedy Manley:</h2>
<p>The Fed increased its forecast for core Personal Consumption Expenditures, or PCE, to 2.8% for the end of the year, up from 2.6%.</p>
<h2>On screen:</h2>
<p>A line graph titled, 'Core PCE: Year-over-year, %' has a vertical axis ranging from 0% to 6%, and a horizontal axis ranging from '15 through '23. The blue data line starts between 1 and 2%, and climbs to about 2% by '17. It dips slightly in '18, returning to about 2% again in '19. From there, it falls, reaching a low near 1% just before 2021. Then it has a steady climb to a peak of nearly 6% between '21 and '23. After another brief dip and rise, it decreases steadily to about 3% through '23.</p>

<h2>Kennedy Manley:</h2>
<p>The revision came as strong U.S. growth and higher than anticipated inflation data in Q1 added a small speed bump in the economy's disinflationary path. Higher expected inflation for 2024 by the committee means that rates will likely be higher for longer, as the median forecast for Fed members shifted from 3 interest cuts to 1 cut this year.</p>
<h2>On screen:</h2>
<p>Another line graph appears, titled, '3 cuts of CPI: Core CPI 3, 6, 12 month % annualized.' The vertical axis ranges from negative 6% to positive 12%, and the horizontal axis ranges from '15 through '23. Three lines representing 3 month (dark blue), 6 month (teal), and 12 month (orange) all start around 1.5% in '15. They follow approximately the same trajectory, with the 3-month line experiencing the most dramatic peaks and valleys. All three lines remain largely steady through '19. Just before '21, the 3-month line falls to nearly negative 3%, while the 6-month line falls to 0% and the 12-month line to about 1%. From there, they all rise to between 1% and 4.5%. They dip momentarily in '21 and rise to their peaks from there. The 3-month line peaks at about 9%, with the 6-month shortly after at about 7% and the 12-month closer to the start of '23, also around 7%. All three trajectories fall from there, continuing past '23 at 3.3% (3-month), 3.4% (12-month), and 3.7% (6-month).</p>

<p>A question appears over gray: <strong>What does this mean for our view?</strong></p>
<h2>Kennedy Manley:</h2>
<p>We see inflation continuing to slow in the second half of 2024, following a May inflation reading which was the lowest monthly increase in 3 years. Although changes to the Fed's projection may mean fewer interest rate cuts, this largely reflects the U.S. economy's strength. We prefer to remain neutral duration because as the Fed begins their cutting cycle, we expect lower Treasury rates by mid-2025.</p>

<p><strong>KEY TAKEAWAYS</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>While no individual datapoint or meeting drives our view, both CPI and the Fed gave us greater confidence that disinflation is still intact</li>
<li>Higher for longer is here, but we have confidence that the Fed's next move will be lower</li>
