Briefing: It was unthinkable a couple of weeks ago, but could the next move by the Fed be a rate hike?

Recent discussions have emerged regarding a potential rate hike by the Federal Reserve, a scenario that seemed unlikely just weeks ago. This shift reflects changing economic conditions that warrant close monitoring.

Operators must assess the implications of such a move on liquidity and throughput across markets, as adjustments in interest rates can influence overall economic capacity and operational frameworks.
