Polymarket traders' 94.5% implied probability on Pause–Pause–Pause for the March, April, and June 2026 FOMC meetings reflects confirmed steady federal funds rate decisions at 3.50%–3.75% in the prior two sessions, backed by resilient March nonfarm payrolls of 178,000 and March CPI inflation accelerating to 3.3% year-over-year, tempering cut expectations amid economic strength. The April 28–29 meeting's hold, despite record dissents signaling internal policy debate over geopolitical risks and oil prices, reinforced trader consensus for no June 16–17 adjustment, aligning with CME FedWatch pricing. Challenges could arise from upcoming April CPI on May 12 or softer jobs data prompting recession fears and rate-cut repricing.
