Markets concerned about a possible recession in 2024

Markets may be willing to risk another beating from the Fed because they are more concerned about a possible recession in 2024. 

This would align with developments in gold and oil prices but appears inconsistent with a surge in stock prices.

Alternatively, the markets might believe that while the Fed officially targets a 2 per cent inflation rate, it might understandably tolerate a slightly higher figure (3 per cent)

Interest rates could well remain unchanged for longer than what the futures market currently implies.
