With a September interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve almost a foregone conclusion, options traders widely expect stocks to run smoothly ahead of Thursday's CPI data. The logic behind market expectations for a rate cut is that U.S. job growth has stalled and the economy needs stimulus. Friday's weak jobs data further strengthened expectations for a 25 basis point rate cut. Despite a slight decline in U.S. stocks and a slight increase in the fear index, it remained below the key 20 level. Options traders expect the S & P 500 to see a two-way swing of about 0.7% following Thursday's CPI release.
