Goldman Says Markets Too Hawkish on Betting Fed Will Hike Rates

Goldman Sachs claims market expectations for Federal Reserve rate hikes are too aggressive and hawkish. The firm states a September rate increase is very unlikely, arguing that current market pricing overstates the extent of Fed tightening. While inflation continues to dominate the Federal Reserve's internal debate, Goldman Sachs describes the current state of the labor market as not that interesting. These projections suggest a divergence between the firm's outlook and the bets currently being placed by market traders.
