    Question

    September Rate Hike Odds Plunge to 44% After July Jobs Miss

    Direct answer

    The disappointing July payroll data has forced a rapid repricing of the Fed's trajectory. With 23,000 jobs lost, the narrative has shifted from inflation containment to preventing a hard landing. Fed Chair Kevin Warsh is now in a difficult position, as raising rates into a contracting labor market risks systemic instability, while holding may allow inflation to linger.
