(Reuters) - Major brokerages including J.P.Morgan, Barclays and Goldman Sachs retained their view of a 25-basis-point (bp) interest-rate cut by the U.S. Federal Reserve in December, after the central bank cut at a similar rate at its Nov. 6-7 meeting.

The Fed's policymakers have begun taking stock of what could become a more complex economic landscape when President-elect Donald Trump takes office next year.

Fed Chair Jerome Powell said the central bank would estimate the impact on its twin goals of stable inflation and maximum employment as the new administration's proposals take shape.

Citigroup stuck to its view of a cut of 50 bps in December, while all major brokerages continue to see a 25-bps cut.

Here are the forecasts from major brokerages after the November policy meeting:
