Odds of a rate hike in September remain below 60% despite Warsh's hawkish speech on Friday. Observers downplay fears of tightening.

  • Fed funds futures put the probability of a September interest rate increase at 58%, suggesting a hike is possible but far from certain despite Chair Kevin Warsh’s hawkish inflation comments.
  • Warsh said inflation remains troubling, citing the Fed’s preferred gauge at 3.7%, well above its 2% target, and prompting declines in Bitcoin and gold as Treasury yields and the dollar rose.
  • Some analysts said any September increase could be intended to reinforce the Fed’s inflation-fighting credibility and contain long-term Treasury yields rather than substantially tighten monetary policy.
