However, stronger-than-expected economic reports have led traders to revise their rate cut forecasts, with a 43% probability for a March cut, down from over 80% a week ago, according to CME Group data.

Economic reports later this week, including the government’s GDP estimate and the latest inflation reading, could further influence rate cut expectations.
