<li>FOMC raised the FF rate by 75bp for the third consecutive time, taking it to 3-3.25% as expected. We expect the Fed Funds rate to peak at 5% in Mar’23.</li>
<li>The more aggressive monetary tightening by the US (outlined in the SER) will likely bring forward the US recession to Q2CY23 (two quarters ahead of our previous forecast). </li>
<li>USD will continue to strengthen, weakening the prospects for emerging markets. India, Indonesia, Vietnam will be safe havens, and Japan will continue riding the weak Yen. Avoid EM-creditor China. </li>
