The market is now pricing in a 50% chance of a US recession by June 2025.

The percentage has more than doubled over the last month and is up from just 10% in July.

Furthermore, the market is pricing in a 50% probability that the Fed will cut rates by at least 200 basis points over the next 8 months.

By comparison, the Federal Reserve expects 150 basis points of rate cuts by the end of 2025.

This comes after a 50 basis point rate reduction on Wednesday which marked the largest surprise for markets since 2008.

The market is clearly pricing-in a recession.
