The prospect of a Federal Reserve rate cut in September has significantly impacted the markets, particularly benefiting smaller-cap firms. This follows a surprise fall in consumer prices last week, which has led the market to fully price in the anticipated rate cut.

While the cut itself is expected to be tiny, its significance goes far beyond its size.
