🚨 FED OFFICIALS PROJECTS ONE MORE RATE HIKE THIS YEAR
FOMC minutes from the September meeting just dropped
Officials believe another rate hike will likely be needed before the end of 2026
Almost all of them see risks that inflation could speed up again
And there is a new reason on the list: AI
The AI investment boom could push demand above what the economy can supply
When demand runs ahead of supply, prices go up
This comes after FED already hiked to 3.75%-4.00% in September, its first hike in 3 years
Markets now price over 80% odds of another hike by December
But this meeting happened before last week's jobs report, which showed only 29K jobs and unemployment at 4.2%
So the Fed is hawkish on paper, while the economy is cooling in real time
Next week's CPI decides where market goes next
