🚨 WILL CPI TRIGGER A RATE HIKE? MY HONEST TAKE ON FED’S NEXT MOVE! #CPIWatch

August Non-Farm Payrolls completely shattered market expectations, adding +162,000 jobs against the 56,000 forecast.

This proved the U.S. labor market remains resilient, putting massive pressure on the Federal Reserve as the latest CPI inflation decision approaches.

The central debate everywhere right now: Will the Fed actually HIKE or HOLD?

🏛️ Fed Rate Expectation:

In my personal trading view, I strongly lean toward a HOLD. While hawkish policymakers are threatening higher rates to fight sticky inflation, aggressive hiking now risks breaking bank liquidity and choking corporate debt refinancing. A hold with hawkish commentary is the realistic middle ground.

📈 My Market Bias: Bullish or Bearish?

I am cautiously BULLISH through this volatility. In my recent trades, I’ve noticed smart money actively absorbing dips at major support zones rather than panic-selling. Market makers love to manufacture pre-CPI fear to sweep liquidity from retail stop-losses before launching the actual recovery leg.

Do not let pre-news panic shake you out of high-conviction positions. Trade the macro levels, not the emotional wicks.

What is your honest stance:

1️⃣ Do you expect the Fed to HIKE or HOLD?

2️⃣ Are you BULLISH 🟢 or BEARISH 🔴?
