(Reuters) – The Fed finally cut its interest rate by an oversized 50 basis points (bps) in its Sept 17-18 meeting that Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said was meant to show policymakers’ commitment to sustaining a low unemployment rate now that inflation had eased.

In addition to approving the half-percentage-point cut, Fed policymakers projected the benchmark interest rate would fall by another half percentage point by the end of this year, a full percentage point next year, and half a percentage point in 2026, though they cautioned that the outlook that far into the future is inherently uncertain.

Following are forecasts from some major banks on economic growth, inflation, and how they expect certain asset classes to perform:
