Weak Jobs Report Dents October Fed Hike Odds
Finance
— 6d
After September’s rate hike, Fed Vice Chair John Williams said officials can wait for more data before acting, weakening market expectations for an October increase while leaving another hike later this year possible. Inflation remains above the Fed’s target, and other officials warned that persistent price pressures may require further tightening, though a milder-than-expected August core inflation reading bolstered the case for holding rates steady in October.
