Markets now price in an 85% chance of a 25-basis-point Fed hike next week
AI Market Summary

Odaily Planet Daily reported that fresh U.S. inflation data has pushed traders to ramp up expectations for a Federal Reserve rate increase at next week's policy meeting. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics said core CPI rose 0.3% month over month in August, topping economists' 0.2% forecast. Market pricing now implies roughly an 85% probability of a 25-basis-point hike at the Sept. 15–16 meeting, up from about 70% before the data release.
