THE ONE-WAY DOOR
Three Years Without A Hike Ended Yesterday At Two
The vote was 12 to 0 for a quarter point, taking the range to 3.75 and 4 percent. Sixteen of eighteen officials see another one.
|

The pause is over. The committee voted 12 to 0 yesterday afternoon to raise by a quarter point. The target range is now 3.75 to 4 percent.
|
|
It is the first increase since July of 2023. Warsh said inflation is still too high and promised a timelier return to 2 percent.

Two of them expect the committee to stop at one. Four of the rest see two more. |

A quarter point sounds small until it is the floor under every quote written from this morning forward.

FROM OUTSIDE THE BOX
In 1971, America Changed Money Forever
On a Sunday evening in August 1971, President Nixon interrupted television programming with an announcement that would permanently reshape the financial system.
Most Americans didn't realize it at the time.
But after the U.S. officially moved away from the gold standard, inflation accelerated, the dollar changed, and gold entered one of the biggest rallies in modern history.
Today, many investors believe we may be approaching another important financial turning point.
That's why this new FREE guide is getting attention.
Inside, you'll discover:
| What actually happened the night Nixon ended the gold standard |
| Why gold prices surged in the years that followed |
| Why some analysts believe gold could become even more important ahead |
| How retirement savers are using diversification strategies during uncertain markets |
| The "wealth transfer" theory many Americans are now watching closely |
Whether you already invest in gold or are simply curious about what may come next, this report offers a deeper look into one of the most talked-about financial topics today.

The projections can be redrawn in October. The vote taken yesterday is in the minutes.
|
|
Which is the whole difference between a forecast and a rate.

EVERY LEAD PASSES BEFORE IT RUNS
The One-Way-Door Test
|
01 |
Can it be undone?
October and December can move the rate again. Nothing moves the loan that repriced this morning.
|
|
|
02 |
Who is already repositioning?
Treasury yields were climbing for weeks before the vote. The two year, which tracks rate expectations most closely, moved further than the ten.
|
|
|
03 |
What does being late cost?
Two meetings are left this year, in October and December. Most of the committee expects at least one of them to move.

An Executive Order Most Savers Have Never Read
Executive Order 14028 reshaped how the federal government approaches cybersecurity across the institutions that hold your money. Priority Gold's free 2026 Wealth Preservation Guide explains what that means for account visibility, why it makes some savers uneasy, and how IRS-approved physical gold sits outside the digital rails.

THE MOVE · WHILE THERE IS STILL TIME
Pull the rate sheet on anything you are due to sign this month.
A quote given on Tuesday and a quote given today sit on different floors. Ask for the new number in writing before anything gets signed, because verbal quotes age badly this week. |
|
|
ALSO GOT LOOSE TODAY
|
The new projections pencil in no increases for later years, with one cut indicated for 2028. |
MONEY |
|
Warsh called the decision good news for Americans who own no financial assets and no home equity. |
WORK |
|
He also said the Fed cannot single handedly stop price shocks on items like oil. |
