Polymarket traders assign a 94% implied probability to Pause–Pause–Pause for FOMC decisions in March, April, and June 2026, reflecting confirmed holds at the 3.50%–3.75% federal funds rate target range in the March 17–18 and April 28–29 meetings amid resurgent inflation pressures. March CPI surged 3.3% year-over-year—the highest since May 2024—driven by energy costs and sticky core readings, reinforcing the Fed's patient stance under outgoing Chair Powell, who emphasized data dependence in his final press conference. June 16–17 pause odds remain firm absent cooling, though April CPI (due May 12) or softening nonfarm payrolls could spur cut repricing if inflation dips below 3%.
