Asian range not on the tape yet.
New York is done. The book is thin and the spread stops telling the truth. I don't initiate.

The minute route is not in yet. The edge into FOMC decision is a sell. A hawkish hold extends the offer. A dovish surprise is the squeeze.
The percent is the edge into the release, not a forecast of the number. Size it only once the phase says armed or into the print.

Dot plot
FOMC · 16 Sep 2026
Each dot is one participant’s funds-rate midpoint. Funds are 3.75–4.00% now. Medians are the SEP prints. June sits underneath, where that year existed.

New year
Longer run
3.2
Jun 3.1
Twelve of eighteen see one more hike this year, to 4.125. Four see two. The median stays 4.1 through 2027, half a point above the June dot, then eases to 3.9 and 3.6. Longer-run neutral is 3.2. Higher for longer is the headwind. The ounce gets relief when the 2027 dot falls, not when the last hike is delivered.
Eighteen dots. One participant skipped 2028 and 2029. The longer-run median prints as 3.2; the two middle dots sit at 3.250.
