Fed fund futures implied rate

Fed rate cut expectations fell back slightly after Friday's U.S. Sep payroll report. Rate cut expectations fell to a 76% chance from an 87% chance before Friday's U.S. payroll report for the Fed to cut the fed funds target range by -25 bp when the FOMC meets Oct 29-30.

But that was the monthly average. In 2016, the Fed funds futures contract for that month was trading at 99.19, which implies that the average Fed funds rate is 0.81% for that month. 30-Day Fed Fund futures and options are one of the most widely used tools for hedging short-term interest rate risk. Fed Fund futures are a direct reflection of collective marketplace insight regarding the future course of the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy. Our Fed rate monitor calculator is based on CME Group 30-Day Fed Fund futures prices, which tend to signal the markets’ expectations regarding the possibility of changes to US interest rates Fed funds rates is to determine the probability of a Fed rate change. In the first example from the previous section the fed funds futures implied rate of 4.975% is 22.5 basis points above the current fed funds rate = 4.75%. Therefore, the market has priced 90 percent of a 25 basis point increase in the fed funds rate into the As an example, let’s say that the current federal funds target rate is 1%, there is a Fed meeting later in the month, and next month’s Fed funds futures are trading at 98.78. In this case the federal funds futures rate implied by next month’s contract is 1.22% (100 - 98.78). For June and September 2015, we set the center of mass of the fed funds rate to 0.6%, 0.725%, and 0.6%, for calculating the point estimate, lower bound, and upper bound of term premiums, respectively (here we assume the fed funds rate settles at 35 basis points after the first hike and increases by 25 basis points afterward).

The effective federal funds rate (EFFR) is calculated as a volume-weighted median of overnight federal funds transactions reported in the FR 2420 Report of Selected Money Market Rates. a The New York Fed publishes the EFFR for the prior business day on the New York Fed’s website at approximately 9:00 a.m. b We show that futures-implied term SOFR rates have closely tracked federal funds OIS rates over the eight months since SOFR futures began trading. To examine the performance of our approach over a longer time horizon, we compare term rates derived from federal funds futures with observed overnight rates and OIS rates from 2000 to the present. Since the implied rate is only 2.5 basis points away from the current rate, market participants see a very low likelihood of a change in rates at the upcoming meeting, with a bias towards a rate cut. Moving on, we can use Fed funds futures pricing to determine the probability of an upcoming rate hike (or cut). Next year, the Fed funds future for December 2016 is trading at 99.19, which implies an average Fed funds rate of 0.81 per cent in that month.
