(Fortune) -- The market is eager to see Ben Bernanke heading for the sidelines. But with the U.S. economy softening, he may not stay there for long. The Federal Open Market Committee is due to conclude a two-day policy meeting Wednesday afternoon. Trading in futures markets predicts the Fed will cut its key fed funds overnight lending target by a quarter-point, to 2%, and hold the line there in coming months. If the markets are right, the Fed is ready to go on hold for the first time since it began cutting rates last summer in response to troubles in the credit markets. The shift wouldn't come a moment too soon for some observers. "Lower fed funds?" wrote Bill Gross, managing director at bond investor Pimco in Newport Beach, Calif., in his May investment outlook. "They would, in Pimco's op
The Dollar rose to an almost one-month high versus the Euro on Tuesday, buoyed by growing views the Federal Reserve is ready to signal a pause in its interest rate cutting-campaign and by weak European economic data. Analysts expect the FOMC to cut the benchmark lending rate by 25bp to 2% and indicate a pause for now, after an aggressive exercise that has cut rates by 300bp since mid-September. While markets are expecting a slightly hawkish tone in the FOMC's statement accompanying the rate decision, poor economic data from the euro zone raised doubts on the ECB's ability too maintain its tough stance on inflation and interest rates. The Sterling was hurt by a warning from policy-maker David Blanchflower that Britain faced a real risk of recession unless the Bank of England took "aggressiv
Business Week Chief Economist Michael Mandel argues that Fed Chief Bernanke should continue cutting rates until the financial markets have stabilized:We live in a boom and bust world—and it’s not the Fed’s fault. As we wait to see what the Fed does on Wednesday, one thing is clear to me: Bernanke and his crew need to keep cutting rates until the economy and the financial markets stabilize, and not worry about the naysayers. Since the middle of the 1990s, I’ve followed a very consistent theme in my writings. I’ve argued that we live in a high-volatility, high-growth world. High-risk, high-return: The two things go together. In the second half of the 1990s, we had the Information Revolution, the Internet, and the tech boom. Then we had the tech bust. All told, the combination o
