The 9-3 FOMC vote to hold rates at 3.5%-3.75% looks less like a settled pause than a higher bar for the next move. Three dissents favored a 25bp hike, while many participants still saw tightening as possible if inflation stops improving. Softer CPI and weaker jobs reduced the urgency to act, with CME odds of a September hold near 67%. My read: the larger market risk is not an immediate hike, but a prolonged period in which sticky inflation, long-yield volatility and stretched AI valuations reinforce each other—keeping risk assets sensitive to every data release.
