Markets were all but certain of a July cut even before Fed officials began unambiguously telegraphing a shift to a more accommodative stance earlier this month. But over the weekend a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/article\/us-usa-economy-poll\/fed-to-cut-rates-for-first-time-in-a-decade-this-month-reuters-poll-idUSKCN1UK00M\">fresh Reuters poll<\/a> confirmed that pretty much everyone is banking on an imminent return to easing: 107 out of 111 economists expect the Fed to make a 25 bps rate cut, two forecast a deeper 50 bps cuts, and two said they expected no change rate all.<\/p>\n<p><b>The first rate cut in a decade would come against a fairly positive economic backdrop:<\/b> A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2019\/07\/05\/jobs-report-june-2019.html\">surge in non-farm payrolls in June<\/a> and sustained growth in consumer spending over the second quarter are hardly signs of a weakening economy.
