Following signs of a cooling U.S. economy, Bank of America Corporation (NYSE:BAC) revised its interest-rate outlook.
Reported on August 11, Bank of America Corporation (NYSE:BAC)’s strategist, Mark Cabana, reduced the year-end forecast for two-year Treasury yields to 3.5% from 3.75%. Meanwhile, the forecast for 10-year yields was trimmed to 4.25% from 4.5%. The strategist cited softer labor market data and shifting Federal Reserve risk assessments.
Furthermore, Bank of America Corporation (NYSE:BAC) sees the appointment of Stephen Miran as Fed governor as a catalyst that could tilt policy toward lower rates. While the bank expects no Fed action until the second half of 2026, the company’s rate team thinks there is a greater chance rates could fall sooner. Accordingly, the bank advises investors to buy longer-duration bonds. Meanwhile, market swaps indicate more than two rate cuts by December, with an 80% chance of a quarter-point cut as soon as next month.
