Analysts at JPMorgan Chase say the Federal Reserve has 670 billion reasons to deliver a "dovish hike" if it elects next week to raise interest rates for the first time in nine and a half years.
The consensus view is that the central bank will take care to avoid upsetting risk appetite at the time of liftoff by emphasizing a gradual glide path higher for rates, lowering the "dot plot" of preferred policy rates, or inserting language that ties additional hikes to actual increases in inflation. A return to robust monthly jobs growth and nascent signs of accelerating wage increases have, however, left more than a few economists doubting that a hike will be accompanied by overtly dovish messaging.

A report from JPMorgan's global quantitative and derivatives team, led by Marko Kolanovic, emphasizes the necessity of not roiling the markets. Extenuating circumstances in the options market could provoke a wave of selling pressure in equities precisely when the Fed seeks to ease markets into a new rate regime, Kolanovic warned.
"This important event falls at a peculiar time–less than 48 hours before the largest option expiry in many years," wrote Kolanovic, noting that $1.1 trillion worth of Standard & Poor's 500-stock index options–of which $670 billion are puts–will expire on Dec. 18. Roughly one-third of the puts poised to expire are at or near the money, with strike prices from 1,900 to 2,050. |
