Markets are "overpricing" Fed rate cuts - Goldman Sachs

Markets are getting too far ahead of themselves in expectations for the Federal Reserve to cut rates, according to Goldman Sachs President and Chief Operating Officer John Waldron.

  • The market is pricing in a fairly substantial set of moves by the Fed.

  • I worry a little bit that the market is too optimistic about how much and how soon the Fed will move.

  • The market is currently pricing in more than a hundred basis points in cuts now.

  • The Fed will be more reliant on the data than they will on the short-term sentiment.
