Traders now assign an 83% probability to a Federal Reserve interest rate cut in September, a dramatic shift from just 59% odds one month prior. The July Consumer Price Index's 0.2% monthly rise bolstered expectations, despite the unprecedented nature of such policy easing amid current economic conditions.

President Trump's public pressure for rate cuts clashes with Chair Powell's cautious stance, as tariff uncertainties and mixed economic signals complicate the Fed's decision-making. Market participants are pricing in dovish action regardless, with CME's FedWatch tool reflecting near-certainty of monetary accommodation.
