Traders Split on Fed Rate Hike Next Week: 30% Odds of 25 Basis Point Increase vs 70% Hold Probability

According to Bloomberg, traders show significant divergence on whether the Federal Reserve will raise rates by 25 basis points next week, with swap markets pricing a 30% probability of a hike and 70% odds of holding rates steady. Such a wide divergence so close to a rate decision is relatively rare in recent years. Fed Chair Kevin Powell has broken the previous practice of pre-signaling the central bank's next moves, making market expectations increasingly difficult to predict under his leadership.
