DoubleLine Gundlach says Fed’s dot plot will show 2 cuts for 2024

DoubleLine Capital CEO Jeffrey Gundlach believes the Federal Reserve’s so-called dot plot will show a projection of only two rate cuts for this year, he said in an investor webcast Tuesday after the bell.

That would be down from the previous forecast of three interest rate cuts indicated for 2024.

The dot plot indicates how 19 FOMC members, both voters and nonvoters, expect where rates would be through the end of the year and out to 2026 and beyond.

The noted fixed income investor previously said he sees no more than one interest rate cut this year as the Fed continues to fight inflation.
