If the Fed cuts next week as expected, what’s the trade right now?

Guy Adami wouldn’t mind “dabbling” in some Citigroup (C). He predicted it reach the $46 level on a Fed cut.

Jeff Macke, on the other hand, said he “wouldn’t touch Citi.” None of the banks have any idea how much they will have to write down yet, he said. Why bother? There’s so many other industries working, he recommended staying away from the financials.

Pete Najarian liked the asset management side of the coin – particularly names like State Street (STT) and Goldman Sachs (GS). But stocks like Merrill Lynch (MER), Lehman Brothers (LEH) and Bear Stearns (BSC) are too toxic, he said.

And while it seems evident that the Fed will cut next Wednesday – Fed futures are predicting with almost 100% certainty a 25 basis point cut – a lot of the upside might already be baked into stocks, Karen Finerman said. Tread carefully.
