## Resource

Wall Street’s betting big: the Fed’s nearly 90% likely to hike rates by a quarter-point, pushing the target to 3.75%-4%, reversing months of cautious optimism. Rising oil prices, stubborn inflation, and a strong job market have shifted the narrative — economists now predict two hikes this year, possibly as soon as this week. With yields on the 10-year Treasury hitting a seven-year high, investors brace for action as the Fed weighs credibility against economic headwinds.
