THE MARKET IS ON TENTERHOOKS, AWAITING THE YEAR’S MOST IMPORTANT INFLATION DATA
The next consumer price report will set the course for interest rates in December, and tension is in the air.
The big question is whether the Federal Reserve will cut rates or leave everything as it is at its final meeting of the year. If the figures come in below expectations, hopes for further cuts will return to the market in full force.
But the risk lies on the other side. If inflation persists and prices remain high, policymakers will have to put the brakes on rate cuts to support the economy. Prepare your portfolio for volatility.
