Expected budget at 6.62 trillion dollars
Is quantitative tightening continuing?
|
At exactly 12:30 AM UAE time, the U.S. Federal Reserve will release its weekly balance sheet report. Forecasts indicate that total assets will remain stable near $6.62 trillion. This level reflects the Federal Reserve's continued implementation of quantitative tightening (QT) at a gradual pace, by not fully reinvesting the proceeds of maturing bonds, with the aim of absorbing excess liquidity without causing disruptions in the markets. |

The anticipation today revolves around:
- Will the report show additional slowdown? Any further decline in assets could be interpreted as an attempt to ease liquidity pressures as the end of the quarter approaches.
- How will the market react? The impact is likely to be limited unless unexpected figures emerge, but any surprise could affect bond yields and the dollar.
- The relationship of the data to the September meeting: Maintaining a contraction pace with the possibility of interest rate cuts will affirm the Fed's efforts to balance combating inflation with stabilizing the markets.
