#FedSeptemberMinutes
The Fed already raised rates in September. What caught my attention is that markets are now pricing October as a much less obvious follow-up 👀
September payrolls added just 29K jobs, while recent Fed signals have pushed expectations toward a pause. Monday's ISM Services PMI now tests whether the economy is cooling beyond hiring.
Then Wednesday's minutes become the bigger read. They should reveal what convinced officials to hike 25bp in September, which inflation and financial-condition signals mattered most, and how much appetite existed for further tightening.
The interesting part is the sequencing.
Weak PMI + cautious minutes could reinforce the idea that September was insurance against inflation, not necessarily the start of another hiking cycle.
Strong services + hawkish minutes would tell a very different story.
For BTC, gold and risk assets, the key isn't what the Fed did last month anymore. It's whether the September hike was one move or the beginning of a path.
