Fed rate cut probability just hit 87.6% - December's move is basically locked in at this point.
But here's the thing everyone's missing: the cut itself? Already baked into prices. What actually matters is Powell's press conference afterward.
His language, his forward guidance, the way he frames inflation expectations - THAT'S what'll trigger the real action. Dovish hints could send risk assets flying. Hawkish caution? Expect a quick reversal.
Bottom line: the rate decision is the appetizer. Powell's tone is the main course.
Brace for swings either way. Volatility incoming.

Powell's mouth is worth more than a rate cut itself; this time there's no problem.

Powell's words are worth more than a rate cut itself; that's the real highlight.

87.6% is all false; it depends on what Powell says to be the real deal.

Powell's tone depends on the mood, even more crucial than the rate cut itself

Honestly, Powell's words can decide the market instantly; an 87.6% probability is basically useless.
