🚨BREAKING: FED EXPECTED TO HOLD RATES FOR THE REST OF 2026 MARKETS NOW PRICING JUST 10 BASIS POINTS OF CUTS.
Strong U.S. economy. Persistent inflation. Middle East energy shocks.
Result: No rate relief coming.
Russell Investments strategist Paul Eitelman says resilient growth + sticky prices mean the Fed stays on hold. The U.S. is relatively insulated thanks to energy independence, while the rest of the world deals with higher inflation.
This is a complete reversal from earlier 2025 expectations of multiple cuts.
Now, Wall Street is pricing in almost nothing for next year.
Higher for longer… again.
The “strong economy” that was supposed to force cuts is now the reason they’re staying put.
