🚨 Markets React Sharply to Weak U.S. Jobs Data — September Fed Rate Cut Odds Soar to 78.5%

📊 Following the Fed’s decision to hold interest rates steady at 4.25%–4.50% in July, the latest disappointing jobs report has dramatically shifted market expectations:

🔑 Key Developments:

🔺 September Rate Cut Odds: Spiked from 39% to 89.1%, now settling at 78.5%

🔻 Odds of Holding Rates: Down to 21.5%

📅 Fed has held rates unchanged for 5 consecutive meetings since Dec 2024

📢 Traders are increasingly pricing in a 25bps cut, signaling growing concern over a softening labor market. The crypto market, in particular, has responded with optimism — interpreting a potential rate cut as a tailwind for digital asset prices.

💡 This shift underscores just how sensitive markets remain to new economic data — and how the Fed’s next move could ripple across equities, bonds, and crypto alike.
