(Reuters) -Major brokerages including Goldman Sachs and J.P.Morgan see more rate cuts by the U.S. Federal Reserve following President Donald Trump's latest tariffs.
Last week, Trump imposed a 10% baseline tariff on all imports to the U.S. and higher duties on dozens of other countries, sparking fears of a global economic slowdown.
Following J.P.Morgan, Goldman Sachs raised the odds of a U.S. recession to 45% from 35% for this year amid a growing number of such predictions by investment banks fueled by the mounting tensions over tariff trade war.
Currently, traders on average expect rate cuts totaling 100 basis points for the year, according to data compiled by LSEG.
Here are the forecasts from major brokerages after latest tariffs:
