Analysts: The interest rate cut in September is almost a certainty, and options traders expect the stock market to operate steadily

ChainCatcher news, according to Jinshi reports, as the Fed's rate cut in September has almost become a foregone conclusion, options traders generally expect the stock market to operate steadily before the CPI data is released on Thursday. The market's expectation for a rate cut is based on the stagnation of U.S. job growth, indicating that the economy needs stimulus. The weak employment data on Friday further reinforced the expectation of a 25 basis point rate cut. Although U.S. stocks fell slightly and the fear index rose slightly, it still remained below the critical level of 20. Options traders expect the S&P 500 index to experience about a 0.7% two-way fluctuation after the CPI is announced on Thursday.
