The Federal Reserve has hiked interest rates by 25 bps for the first time since July 2023<\/strong>, stating, \u201cMy commitment in June was to reaffirm\u2026that we will deliver price stability<\/em>\u2026Today\u2019s action starts to show we are serious about this.<\/em>\u201d The culmination of this meeting\u2019s communication \u2013 the FOMC statement, the Summary of Economic Projections and Fed Chair Warsh\u2019s press conference suggest the Fed is considering additional hikes. The SEP showed sixteen committee members expect another rate increase in 2026, reinforcing the hawkish lean. Also, within the SEP, the PCE inflation and GDP growth projections were revised higher while the unemployment rate was marked lower, painting a picture skewed towards inflationary risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are three key questions for the Fed, markets, and economists are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. \n

    Will this hiking cycle be an effective treatment for inflation that is being driven by supply shocks<\/a>?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n

  2. \n

    Could the increase in interest rates lead to a drag on growth?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n

  3. \n

    What trends does the Fed need to see for them to go on pause again?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Chair Warsh, unsurprisingly, provided no forward guidance, but he did outline three key developments that occurred over the past seven weeks to initiate the hike:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    1. \n

      A wide range of data, including labor market data, signaled that the economy has strengthened.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n

    2. \n

      Inflation trends through the summer \u201cweren\u2019t passing the test.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n

    3. \n

       The geopolitical situation has changed for the worse.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Our expectation is for two additional hikes in 2026<\/a>, fully reversing the 2025 \u201cinsurance\u201d cuts. Chair Warsh emphasized that he would be \u201chard-pressed to consider conditions restrictive\u201d and that current conditions allowed the Fed to remove \u201ca dose of accommodation.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      We acknowledge that three rate hikes are unlikely to meaningfully move the dial on what is primarily supply-driven inflation. However, it may cause some unpleasant side effects on lower-and-middle-income consumers who have already been weakened by high energy prices, reduced savings and a rising debt burden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      How far the Fed will want and need to go will depend on a range of data and events, including fluctuating oil prices<\/a> and oscillating tariff policies<\/a>. A particularly uncertain macro backdrop necessitates keeping a close watch on some key indicators. Here are six indicators we will be monitoring in the months ahead:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      1) Wage growth vs. inflation: The foundation of consumption<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      Private-sector wage growth has failed to keep pace with inflation since April, creating negative real wage growth that threatens consumer spending. Wages account for 50% of personal income, so this gap matters. While disposable personal income has grown 4.2% year over year, this masks a troubling distribution: high earners benefit from rising interest income as the Fed hikes rates, while lower- and middle-income households face real wage declines. If inflation continues outpacing wage growth, this raises the question of whether higher personal interest income at the top can offset demand destruction from real wage declines at the bottom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \"RBC\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      2) Credit reliance: A stress signal<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      Households are saving less and borrowing more to sustain spending. Revolving credit utilization\u2014credit cards and home equity lines\u2014has risen 4% year over year, while non-revolving loans (auto, student, personal) have also climbed. This shift signals growing consumer stress even before Fed hikes. Historically, negative real wage growth triggers increased consumer loan activity. Delinquency rates have already normalized; if consumers become more dependent on credit during a Fed hiking cycle, we should expect delinquencies to rise alongside the interest rate burden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \"RBC\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      3) Interest payment burden: Historically a slowdown\/recession warning<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      Non-mortgage personal interest payments now consume 2.5% of disposable income\u2014alarmingly close to the 2.8% threshold that preceded the three pre-COVID recessions. What’s more concerning: this burden has remained flat despite 125 basis points of Fed cuts in 2024\u20132025, suggesting consumers are already heavily leveraged. If the Fed hikes rates, the burden will flow quickly through credit cards, auto loans, and other consumer lending, pushing closer to recessionary levels. Consumers will face a stark choice: cut spending or deplete already-low savings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      4) Delinquency rates: Access to credit a risk<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      Commercial bank loan delinquencies sit at 2.6%, with credit cards at 2.9% and auto loans trending higher. More concerning is the recent spike in delinquencies 120+ days late or in derogatory status \u2014 repossessions, charge-offs, and foreclosures. Residential loan delinquencies, by contrast, remain modest at 1.9%, a reflection of the K-shaped economy<\/a> where lower- and middle-income consumers are relying more heavily on credit and struggling to make payments. Once consumers enter derogatory status, they lose credit access entirely, which could weigh significantly on consumption.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      5) Auto inflation: Demand-driven pressure<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      The auto sector remains one of the few inflation categories sensitive to consumer demand. Price pressures persist, and tariffs will add upward force. The critical question: will higher rates cool auto demand enough to ease price pressures, or will tariff-driven costs keep them elevated regardless? This matters because auto inflation doesn’t stay isolated. During COVID-19, maintenance, repair, and insurance costs lagged auto price spikes by roughly a year. A similar pattern could broaden the inflation impulse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      6) Social security COLAs: A demand tailwind<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      The 2027 Social Security cost-of-living adjustment (COLA)\u2014calculated from Q3 2026 CPI-W data\u2014is expected to reach 3.5%, benefiting 70 million retirees. Transfer income now represents just under 20% of total personal income. If inflation cools in 2027 while elevated transfer payments persist, COLAs themselves could become a source of demand-driven inflation pressure, creating an unusual dynamic where benefits meant to support retirees fuel broader price increases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \"RBC\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

      Honorable mention: Housing remains in a deep freeze<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

      Housing<\/a> will likely represent a drag on growth as affordability remains a key hurdle. As mortgage rates rise, this disincentivizes would-be buyers from entering into the market and discourages existing homeowners from moving. Since housing affordability has drastically deteriorated, we see little prospect for growth stemming from residential investment. And, if anything, rate hikes will make the situation worse. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
