Investors expect the possibility of the Federal Reserve keeping interest rates unchanged at its next meeting to decrease, while inflation and employment data scheduled to be released next week may still change expectations. According to CME Federal Reserve observations, the probability of the Fed keeping interest rates unchanged has decreased from nearly 20% earlier this month to 2%. Most people are betting that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates by 25 basis points. The PCE data for September will be released next Thursday, and the employment data for October will be released next Friday. Price data shows that inflation persists but is not overheated. Employment data may be subject to a one-time impact from hurricanes and strikes. @ruwak
