According to The Block, Johns Hopkins University economist Steve Hanke believes that the market has already priced in a 25 basis point interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve next Wednesday, and it could lead to a "sell-the-news" event for risk assets.

Hanke stated, "The market has already priced in a 25-basis-point rate cut, meaning that an actual cut could disappoint and lead to a 'sell-the-news' reaction. On the other hand, a 50-basis-point rate cut is not factored in. If it happens, it could drive the market higher."
