Equichain Wealth Advisors: Market View & Opinion

Key data is yet to be released next week, a day ahead of US Fed meeting outcome, we assume that US Fed will be well aware about the trend which will be considered in the US Fed meeting outcome due on 13-Dec-23.  Currently Fed fund rate monitor tool indicate 94.3% probability of rate to remain unchanged on 13-Dec-23.

We remain cautiously optimistic and we are not expecting any surprise in US Fed decision or any big movement in any of the asset classes as reaction to US Fed meeting outcome.  We expect US Fed to keeps interest rate unchanged and commentary of US Fed chair Jerome Powell will be important
