#FedSplitGoesPublic The Fed is openly split and the debate has shifted from "how much to hike" to "hike or cut" 👀 Hike camp: Logan says rates should be modestly higher. Hammack points to five straight years above 2% target. Kashkari backs a 25bp hike at September. The inflation argument 📈 Cut camp: Waller warns the job market could weaken faster than expected and backs a 25bp cut at the Sept 16-17 meeting. The only public cut call on the table 📉 And Warsh? Called 2% "unshakeable," refused to give any guidance, took no side. Classic. The path to September rests entirely on two CPI prints now 🫠 Markets are tilting toward a hike. But Waller's cut call means a weak jobs print or cool CPI could flip pricing fast. Everything is data-dependent in the most literal sense 🤔 Hike camp vs cut camp, September meeting the battleground, two CPI prints to decide it all. Which side are you on — and what's the number that would change your mind? 👇
