One major release remains before the Sep 16 FOMC. August ADP payrolls rose just 38K versus 47K expected, the slowest since January. The Sep 2 Beige Book said 10 of 12 districts saw modest growth and hiring slowed. Yet CME still prices a 25bp hike at 62.3%. Core PCE held at 3.3%, while Carson found 54% of 178 PCE items rose over 3% YoY, up from 47% a year ago. Williams called inflation encouraging but stayed wait-and-see. August payrolls arrive Sep 4 at 8:30am, the final puzzle piece#LastNFPBefo.
