Traders Cut Bets on Fed Rate Hike in October After Williams Comments

The reaction is less about Williams himself than about how thin the market's conviction had become: a single comment was enough to pull forward expectations back to a single hike. That sensitivity matters for crypto and RWA desks, where positioning has leaned on the rate path as a proxy for risk appetite. The open question is whether this repricing holds through the next round of Fed communication, or fades as it has after similar pushback episodes.
