    Mixed sentiment prevails in world markets as asset classes positioned for the Fed’s potentially first rate cut since March 2020. The keenly anticipated decision of the Federal Open Markets Committee is scheduled to be announced at 2 PM ET.

    The CME Group’s closely monitored FedWatch Tool that tracks the expectations of interest rate traders now shows a 63-percent likelihood of a half-point cut and a 37-percent probability of a quarter-point easing by the Federal Reserve.

    Wall Street Futures are trading in mildly positive territory. European benchmarks are trading on a negative note. Asian stock indexes however finished trading on a positive note.

    Dollar Index has edged down. Bond yields hardened amidst anxiety about the Fed review outcome. An unexpected jump in inventories in the U.S. dragged down global crude oil prices. Gold recorded overnight gains as markets positioned for a significant Fed rate cut. Cryptocurrencies are trading mostly positive.

    Here is a snapshot of the major world markets at this hour.
