Market-implied odds of 94% for a Fed rate hike reflect the impact of August core CPI data exceeding consensus at 0.3% month-over-month alongside elevated energy prices tied to supply disruptions. The federal funds target range stands at 3.50%-3.75%, and futures pricing now embeds a roughly 23 basis point increase at the September 16 FOMC meeting. Chair Kevin Warsh’s emphasis on returning inflation to the 2% target, reinforced by revised dot-plot projections showing more officials favoring tightening, has anchored trader sentiment. While the labor market remains near maximum employment, persistent core readings above target have shifted the policy focus toward price stability. A softer-than-expected September CPI or clear signs of cooling demand could still alter the outcome before the meeting concludes.
