Trader consensus on Polymarket assigns near-tied implied probabilities of 43% for one dissent and 42.5% for two at the September 17-18 FOMC meeting, reflecting hawk-dove tensions over rate cut size amid softer economic data. August CPI eased to 2.5% year-over-year—the lowest since 2021—while payrolls added only 142,000 jobs versus 165,000 expected, bolstering calls for a 50bps cut against hawks favoring 25bps. Divergent Fed speeches, like Kashkari's caution and Daly's accommodation tilt, heighten dissent risk after July minutes exposed split dot plot paths. Pre-meeting PCE and ISM reports loom as catalysts to shift odds toward zero or three-plus dissents, underscoring resolution uncertainty.
