Will the Federal Reserve hike rates by December 31, 2026? — Before 2027
Read as: Will the FOMC raise the federal funds target range at any scheduled meeting from now through December 2026?
· Federal Reserve FOMC statement (verified against the effective federal funds rate)
Probability of yes
Models the FOMC as an actor with a dual mandate. A logistic regression fitted on monthly data since 1990 links its decisions to the gap between the policy rate and a Taylor (1993) rule, and to its tendency to keep moving in the same direction. That is blended with the raw frequency of each decision in the same policy stance.
