And I’d find it difficult to cut rates again in December unless there is clear evidence that inflation will fall faster than expected or that the labor market will cool more rapidly,” Logan said at the “The Evolving Landscape of Bank Funding” conference at the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Fed October Rate Cut</h2>The <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/ed-cuts-rates-by-25-basis-points-october-fomc-meeting/cLGZvdHR3DR">rate cut on Wednesday</a> resulted in the federal funds rate now ranging from 3.75% to 4%, in line with market expectations, and was the second rate cut announced this year, following a 25-bps&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/default/equity/fed-cuts-rates-by-25-basis-points-september-fomc-meeting/chDGxvqRd6u">cut in September</a>.The FOMC noted that the economy continues to grow at a moderate pace. It flagged signs of labor market softening, citing a slowdown in job gains and a slight uptick in the unemployment rate.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Logan Leans Against Pre-emptive Policy Moves</h2>Logan added that the FOMC already mitigated downside risks by cutting rates at its previous meeting in September. “The remaining risks to employment are ones we can monitor closely and respond to if they are becoming more likely to materialize, not ones that currently warrant further preemptive action,” she said.“Inflation remains too high, taxing the budgets of businesses and families, and appears likely to exceed the FOMC’s 2 percent target for too much longer. This economic outlook didn’t call for cutting rates,” Logan highlighted.She noted that while the government shutdown has reduced the availability of national statistics, a wide range of alternative data sources continues to provide visibility into the state of the economy.&nbsp;There have been concerns regarding the federal government shutdown, which has entered its 31st day, resulting in challenges for the Federal Reserve to form its monetary policy decisions due to the lack of sufficient data.The jobs report was last published in September, for August, while the White House said last week that a government shutdown&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/government-shutdown-could-prevent-october-cpi-release/cLGJooeR3t4">may prevent the release</a> of the October Consumer Price Index (CPI) data.&nbsp;Meanwhile, U.S. equities rose in Friday morning’s trade.

Under the deal, the U.S. will roll back some tariffs and ease export controls, while China will increase its purchases of American soybeans and hold off on new limits on rare earth exports.Trump described the meeting as “amazing,” while Xi said dialogue is always better than confrontation. The limited agreement is expected to ease months of escalating trade tensions that have disrupted global supply chains, though it falls short of addressing deeper issues in the U.S.-China economic rivalry.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Decoupling Still Underway</h2>Despite the truce, both countries are moving to reduce mutual dependence. Trump used his broader Asia visit to strengthen ties with Japan and South Korea, securing investment pledges in shipbuilding and rare earths to enhance U.S. leverage in future talks.China, meanwhile, is pushing ahead with its five-year plan centered on achieving breakthroughs in high-end semiconductor technology and building supply chains independent of the U.S.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Stocktwits Traders Show Mixed Sentiment</h2>On Stocktwits, sentiment for the S&amp;P 500 (SPY) was ‘bearish’ amid ‘high’ message volume, while the Nasdaq 100 (QQQ) saw ‘extremely bearish’ sentiment with similarly ‘high’ activity.

The pace of growth was the highest in three years."AWS is growing at a pace we haven't seen since 2022," CEO Andy Jassy said in a statement. "We continue to see strong demand in AI and core infrastructure, and we've been focused on accelerating capacity."&nbsp;That still trails Microsoft Azure's 40% and Google Cloud's 34% growth during the September quarter, but is a significant improvement from its own 17.5% growth rate in the prior three-month period, which made several analysts skeptical.Jassy added that the power capacity of the AWS data center fleet has doubled since 2022 and is expected to double again by 2027.AWS contributes just over 15% of Amazon's overall revenue, yet it&nbsp;accounts for&nbsp;about 60% of the company's total operating income.<h2 class="st-heading-2">AI Demand, Investment Show No Signs Of Cooling</h2>Amazon raised its 2025 capital expenditure estimate to $125 billion, up from $118 billion previously, and said the figure is likely to increase next year. Together with similar moves from Meta, Alphabet, and Microsoft, as well as the stellar growth at Azure and Google Cloud last quarter, it is clear that AI demand shows no sign of cooling.Amazon's stock rose 13.2% in after-market trading following the results. If the move holds in Friday's session, it would be the stock's best performance since&nbsp;February 2022.

I think if the Fed keeps lowering interest rates, then I think they will be feeding animal spirits. In other words, I think they will increase the chances of financial instability,” Yardeni said in an interview with CNBC.He touched upon the weakness in the labor market, stating that it might seem to need rate cuts. However, Yardeni added that what ails the labor market can be cured with lower interest rates. “Things like deportation, stricter immigration, AI, all these issues are structural in nature,” he added.Yardeni’s comments come a day after the Fed cut the&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/fed-cuts-rates-by-25-basis-points-october-fomc-meeting/cLGZvdHR3DR">policy rate</a> by 25 basis points, as expected. This brings down the federal funds rate to the 3.75% to 4% range.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Hawkish Cut</h2>Yardeni termed the Fed rate cut on Wednesday a hawkish one, saying that the central bank refrained from feeding the “animal spirits” in the stock markets. This comes after Powell said that a December rate cut was not a foregone conclusion.While the next Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting is nearly six weeks away, data from the CME FedWatch&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a> shows that there is a 72.6% probability of a 25 basis point cut in the December meeting.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Strong Earnings</h2>The economist also stated that U.S. corporate earnings have been “really surprisingly good” in the first three quarters of 2025. He added that investors are looking for a Santa Claus rally, and they might very well get it.Earlier on Thursday, Jeremy Siegel, professor emeritus of finance at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School of Business,&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/jeremy-siegel-fed-has-our-back-jerome-powell-december-cut-not-a-given/cLGFvmXR3xQ">stated</a> that as a result of the Fed’s cautious stance, there could be a slowdown in U.S. equities.

Ed Yardeni Says Further Rate Cuts Will Increase The Chances Of Financial Instability: Report

Yardeni’s comments come a day after the Fed cut the policy rate by 25 basis points, as was expected.

Powell had expressed concerns that the central bank continues to face two-sided risks, in terms of inflation as well as increased downside threats to employment.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Impact On Equities</h2>Siegel believes that, as a result of the Fed’s cautious approach, there could be a slowdown in U.S. equities. However, he thinks it won’t be enough to stop the bull market.“The good thing is, I think the Fed has our back. They’re essentially saying, ‘if we do see a slowdown, we will cut. But if we see the strength that we’re seeing right now, we’re going to wait for another meeting and see what happens in January,” Siegel said in the interview.<h2 class="st-heading-2">The Path Ahead</h2>Siegel added that the markets will find comfort in knowing that the Fed is not stubborn in its monetary policy, even if data shows it should lower rates.After the rate cut announcement on Wednesday, Powell stated that data available prior to the government shutdown indicated that economic growth was on a firmer trajectory than expected.<blockquote>“In the Committee’s discussions at this meeting, there were strongly differing views about how to proceed in December. A further reduction in the policy rate at the December meeting is not a forgone conclusion—far from it. Policy is not on a preset course.”— Jerome Powell, Chair, Federal Reserve</blockquote>He noted that post the 25 bps cut, the central bank is well-positioned to respond to potential economic developments.Meanwhile, U.S. equities were mixed in Thursday morning’s trade.
