In a significant development regarding the U.S. Federal Reserve’s (Fed) future policy direction, Deutsche Bank has challenged key assertions made by former Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen regarding anticipated interest rate cuts. The bank argues that Yellen’s proposed 150-175 basis point reduction is unsupported by financial models and emphasizes a more conservative approach. Deutsche Bank strategist Matthew Raskin advocates for a smaller 25 basis-point cut, aligning with existing economic guidelines. This disagreement over the optimal rate adjustment strategy reflects ongoing uncertainty regarding fiscal policy’s impact on bond markets and potentially influences cryptocurrency market volatility.
