**Hawkish monetary policy stance amid persistently elevated inflation is the dominant factor shaping trader expectations for one dissent at the December 8-9 FOMC meeting.** With the federal funds rate at 3.75-4.00% following the September 25bp hike and the median SEP projection now at 4.1% for year-end 2026, markets price an 83% chance of another increase at the December gathering. Core PCE inflation near 3.4% and headline readings above target, alongside a stable labor market with unemployment around 4.1%, have reduced the scope for dovish pushback while limiting extreme hawkish deviations. This environment supports the 51.2% implied probability of exactly one dissent—most likely a dovish vote against further tightening—over zero dissents at 25.5%, as incoming data on CPI, payrolls, and PCE through November could either solidify consensus or introduce modest disagreement. The new chair’s emphasis on data-dependent decisions and reduced forward guidance adds uncertainty around the final vote tally.
