WILL SEPTEMBER BRING A RATE HIKE? $BTC STILL HAS A HURDLE TO CLEAR Waller has laid out his view pretty clearly this time: 🔹 If inflation continues to cool, he would lean toward keeping interest rates unchanged. 🔹 If August inflation accelerates again, he would be open to supporting a rate hike. But there’s an important distinction: this is Waller’s personal assessment, not a commitment from the Fed to cut rates. #WallerEyesAugCPI #BTCGoldRatioHigh #OKXOutcomeLeagueFOMC

#OKXOutcomeLeagueFOMC The September FOMC decision is live in OKX Outcome League, and my current read is that a hold still looks slightly more likely than a 25bp hike 🏛️ The data aren’t giving the Fed a clean answer. Hiring has softened, but the labor market hasn’t collapsed. Inflation has cooled too, yet it remains above the 2% target. That combination gives policymakers a reason to stay cautious rather than move quickly in either direction. What could change my view? A strong payroll report, hotter inflation data or a clear shift in Fed language before September 17 📊 The interesting part is that this decision may come down to risk management rather than one headline number. Holding would preserve flexibility, while hiking would signal that inflation remains the dominant concern. That’s my reasoning for now—but with several major releases still ahead, I wouldn’t call this an easy pick.

#OKXOutcomeF1TI15Recap What a reminder that predictions need room for chaos. Norris lost the Dutch GP lead, then fought back to win. Verstappen was gone on Lap 1. TI15 delivered another thriller as Team Spirit edged Vision 3-2, giving Yatoro and Collapse a historic third Aegis. That's why I like Outcome League: getting the result right is great, but explaining the variables before the chaos begins is the real challenge. Ready for the next pick?

OKX Outcome League S2 caught my attention because I like events where it’s not just about being active you actually have to think about what could happen next and put your market judgment to the test. For me, prediction style challenges are interesting because being right once can be luck, but staying consistent over multiple rounds is much harder. Markets can change quickly after one headline, economic release, or shift in sentiment, so I’m curious to see who can actually maintain a strong track record throughout S2. I also think events like this are a fun way to compare how differently everyone reads the same market. Two people can look at exactly the same information and still come to completely different conclusions. #OKXOutcomeLeagueS2 $BTC

Zandvoort should reward a disciplined call more than a famous-name pick. With Kimi Antonelli, Lando Norris, Lewis Hamilton, Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen among the Yes/No options, my edge would come from weighing track variables before committing: qualifying position, execution under pressure and how changing conditions could alter race strategy. My measured lean is to favor the contender whose weekend looks most complete, rather than locking in a winner on reputation alone. The Aug 23 race leaves room to update that view as evidence develops. NFA. #OKXOutcomeLeagueDutchGP

I'm doing my usual live stream tomorrow morning at 9 am (ET) on whether the Fed will hike on September 16. Neither inflation or the labor market call for a hike, but it's possible a hike will be needed - and happen - to anchor long-term Treasury yields...

US Aug nonfarm payrolls rose 162K, far above expectations of under 60K, with unemployment steady at 4.1%. Forecasts had ranged from a 25K drop to a 121K gain, so the print cleared the top of the range. Swaps now price a September Fed hike above 60%, versus roughly 50% on CME futures beforehand. CPI lands Sep 11 and the FOMC meets Sep 15 to 16. BofA calls payrolls the appetizer and CPI the main course and still expects a hike; Morgan Stanley sees a hold, with August core CPI at 0.23% MoM.#AugPayr

Next FOMC Sept 15-16th. Odds of a raise hike at 53% after today.

September 🔥 & August💥 2026 The unexpectedly rebound in nonfarm payroll data will significantly strengthen discussions about a Fed rate hike in September. According to CME Group's FedWatch tool, after ADP data release, the market expected a 62.2% probability of a 25 basis point rate hike in September; After the better-than-expected employment report, this probability is expected to rise further. #OKXOutcomeLeagueFOMC #BTCGoldRatioHigh #WallerEyesAugCPI

#沃勒：8月通胀决定9月是否加息 The nonfarm payrolls exploded, and the probability of a rate hike went straight to full. The data just came out at 8:30 PM, far exceeding expectations. US August nonfarm payrolls increased by 162,000, with an expectation of only 56,000, directly hitting 2.9 times the forecast. Previously, the market relied on Waller's phrase "give inflation a chance" to suppress the rate hike probability to around 50%. Now#WallerEyesAugCPI #BTCGoldRatioHigh #OKXOutcomeLeagueFOMC
