📊 SEPTEMBER FED HIKE BACK IN PLAY
The Fed held rates steady and offered no guidance, but markets viewed the meeting as dovish after Chair Kevin Warsh suggested tighter financial conditions may already be doing some of the Fed's work.
Despite the pause, three FOMC officials dissented in favor of a 25 bp hike. Kalshi now prices a 53% chance of a September rate hike, versus 46% for no change.

BCA RESEARCH TURNS BULLISH ON GOLD
BCA Research said it's time to buy gold, arguing the recent selloff is nearing an end as headwinds from higher real yields fade.
The firm expects a weaker U.S. dollar to become a tailwind for gold, while continued central bank buying, geopolitical risks, and reserve diversification should provide long-term support.

TRADERS BRACE FOR S&P 500 VOLATILITY
Investors are increasing hedges against broader S&P 500 swings as macro risks—including inflation, Fed uncertainty and geopolitical tensions—take center stage after earnings season.
Goldman Sachs favors a reverse dispersion trade, betting on higher index volatility but lower single-stock volatility. Demand for downside protection is also rising ahead of the historically volatile August-September period.

LOGAN BACKS IMMEDIATE RATE HIKE
Fed Governor Lorie Logan said she preferred a 25 bp rate hike, arguing inflation is not on track to sustainably return to the Fed's 2% target.
Logan said taking modest action now would reduce the risk of more aggressive tightening later, while stressing the Fed cannot rely on unexpected shocks to achieve its inflation goal.
