Markets have bounced back nicely from the recent volatility, and it's becoming clearer each day that the recent turbulence was likely due to the unwinding of large leveraged positions, like yen-funded carry trades, rather than deeper concerns about global growth. The July CPI numbers might not show much improvement from the previous month, but as long as there isn’t a big surprise, investors might still hope for the Fed to start easing in September. Futures markets currently show a 54% chance of a 50 basis point cut by the Fed, with a 46% chance of a 25 basis point cut, and traders are pricing in a full percentage point of easing by year-end.
