Barclays: Expects the Federal Reserve to cut rates by 25 basis points in December, with internal disagreements
According to ChainCatcher, citing Jinse Finance, Barclays economists stated in a report that there is a very high probability that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates by 25 basis points at the December 9-10 meeting, with market pricing indicating a probability of over 80% for a rate cut. They expect Powell to support this rate cut, but there may be strong internal disagreements, with at least two hawkish dissenting votes from Schmid and Musalem. Barclays also pointed out that the statement and the chairman's press conference will be slightly hawkish, suggesting a possible pause in January unless labor market conditions deteriorate more than expected.

Michael Burry has dramatically increased his short positions on Micron, Palantir, and semiconductor ETFs, stating that the scale is “quite large.” His main reasoning is that Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron squeezed their conventional DRAM production to meet AI-driven HBM demand, resulting in a shortage; however, with production capacity now ramping up, the Damocles sword of oversupply is hanging over the market. The inventory warning from Acer’s CEO has further convinced him that the memory cycle has already peaked.
