- Federal Reserve officials indicated another rate hike is on the horizon but gave no indication of when, according to meeting minutes.
- Fed officials were unanimous in raising rates in September, though economic signals have since changed and officials have cited fears about lingering inflation pressures.
Why it matters: The absence of a committed timeline in the Fed's minutes leaves markets and borrowers guessing about the next move, even though officials are still bracing for inflation — the gap between 'another hike coming' and 'we know when' is exactly the kind of fog that drives rate-cut bets into reversal.
