Recent softer July CPI and PPI readings, showing headline inflation easing to 3.4% year-over-year, have lowered implied probabilities of a September rate hike to around 35% per CME FedWatch futures, while still leaving elevated odds for December tightening. The Federal Reserve has held the federal funds target at 3.50%-3.75% through mid-2026 amid persistent price pressures above the 2% goal, with July FOMC minutes revealing that many participants viewed further hikes as likely necessary if inflation fails to decline. Weak July nonfarm payrolls data has tempered near-term hawkishness, yet the median SEP path points to a 3.8% funds rate by year-end. The September 15-16 FOMC meeting, featuring updated projections, remains the key near-term catalyst for trader positioning on any potential cut timeline.
