SOFR Holds at 3.63%, Fed Funds Rate at 3.62%

The secured overnight financing rate (SOFR) came in at 3.63% on September 14, up from 3.62% the prior day. The effective federal funds rate for the same session was 3.62%, compared with 3.63% a day earlier. The two overnight benchmarks moved in opposite directions by a single basis point.

AI take

A one-basis-point cross is noise, not signal. What matters is that SOFR and the effective fed funds rate remain effectively pinned within a basis point of each other, which is the normal state when repo collateral is abundant and the Fed's floor tools are holding. The item offers no context on repo volumes, reserve levels, or quarter-end pressures, so the open question is whether this spread stays this tight as balance-sheet and issuance dynamics shift. On its own, the print says little beyond confirming that overnight dollar funding is currently unremarkable.
