Standard Chartered Sees Two More Fed Hikes Before Mid-2027

Original: SC Sees Two More Fed Hikes Before Mid-2027, Stays Overweight On Equities

Standard Chartered is forecasting two further US Federal Reserve rate hikes before mid-2027, contrary to market expectations of cuts, and says it remains overweight on equities. The bank's strategists argue equities can still perform despite higher borrowing costs, and investors are weighing the call against expectations of an easing cycle. The outlook is drawing attention from market watchers tracking inflation and Fed policy.

Why now: Investors are reassessing rate expectations as forecasts diverge from the prevailing assumption of Fed rate cuts.
