Trader consensus on Polymarket reflects diminished expectations for a near-term Federal Reserve rate cut following April 2026 CPI data released May 12, showing headline inflation accelerating to 3.8% year-over-year—the highest since May 2023—up from 3.3% in March, amid surging energy prices. The Fed funds target remains at 3.50%-3.75%, unchanged for a third straight FOMC meeting in late April amid internal divisions. CME FedWatch Tool implies over 97% probability of a June 16-17 hold, aligning with brokerage views like BofA and JPMorgan forecasting steady policy through 2026 or beyond. Upcoming catalysts include late-May PCE inflation—Fed's preferred gauge—and June 3-4 nonfarm payrolls, which could shift market-implied rate paths if labor softens or inflation eases further.
