Shares of automation software company UiPath (NYSEPATH)
fell 5% in the afternoon session as stocks tumbled (Nasdaq down 2%, S&P 500 down 1.5%) after the Fed signaled that there would be fewer cuts ahead (than expected) during the December 2024 FOMC meeting. This announcement followed the committee's decision to reduce rates by 0.25% to a range of 4.25%–4.5%, which was largely in line with consensus forecasts. Looking ahead to 2025, the Fed is expected to implement two quarter-point rate cuts, suggesting that future policy adjustments will be implemented at a slower pace, with the committee reiterating a data-driven approach that factors future inflation data and updates on the labor market.
As a reminder, the driver of a stock's value is the sum of its future cash flows discounted back to today. The result of lower interest rates, all else equal, is higher stock valuations. This is especially true for higher-growth stocks, such as those in the technology sector, where the current value depends more on cash flows many years out in the future.
