Hawkish signals from Fed Chair Kevin Warsh at Jackson Hole, combined with July FOMC dissenters favoring a hike and sticky inflation above the 2% PCE target, have lifted the implied probability of a September rate increase to around 55%, pushing short-term Treasury yields higher. Elevated oil prices tied to Middle East tensions and solid corporate earnings—particularly in AI-exposed sectors—have supported valuations near current levels, though traders are watching the upcoming September FOMC, August CPI, and jobs data for resolution clues on the policy path and growth trajectory.
