**Minutes reveal deeper divisions at the Federal Reserve.** The Federal Reserve cut rates by half a percentage point at its September meeting, but Chairman Jerome Powell faced some resistance to this decision as more than one of his colleagues advocated for only a 25 basis point rate cut. "Some participants indicated that they would have preferred a 25 basis point reduction in the target range at this meeting, and several others indicated that they would have supported such a cut as well," the Federal Open Market Committee minutes released on Wednesday in Washington for the September 17-18 meeting stated All participants agreed that lowering borrowing costs is appropriate. The Federal Reserve of the United States cut its benchmark interest rate by 50 basis points last month, taking decisive action to provide a buffer for economic growth in the face of stubbornly slowing inflation and rising risks in the job market. However, for many officials, a concern is that such a large rate cut is not consistent with their gradual lowering of rates. Meeting minutes show, "Several participants noted that a 25 basis point cut would align with the gradual normalization path of policy, allowing policymakers time to assess the extent of policy constraints when the economic situation changes." Although the only dissenter ultimately casting a vote against was board member Michelle Bowman, the meeting minutes indicate a more serious level of dissent among decision-makers than the nearly unanimous decision would suggest. This indicates that the committee implemented a significant rate cut under the leadership of Powell.

**Wholesale inventories in the United States saw a slight increase in August.** Data from the U.S. Department of Commerce shows that wholesale inventories in the United States rose for the fifth consecutive month in August, although the growth rate was slightly lower than in July. Adjusted data released on Wednesday showed a 0.1% month-on-month increase in wholesale inventories. The inventory-to-sales ratio for August (measuring how many months it would take for wholesalers to sell existing inventory) was 1.35, the same as in July and the same month in 2023. The data shows that durable goods inventories increased by 0.3% while nondurable goods inventories decreased by 0.1%.

**Capital Economics: The Federal Reserve is expected to cut rates by nearly two percentage points from now.** Analyst Paul Ashworth from Capital Economics stated in a report that the Federal Reserve may continue to cut rates by 25 basis points until the federal funds target rate falls to the range of 3%-3.25%. According to data from the CME Group, this would be higher than the market's general expectation that the terminal rate would reach 3.25%-3.5% or higher. Ashworth expects a 25 basis point rate cut by the Federal Reserve in November, which is also the most anticipated by the market, although the probability of keeping rates unchanged in November has risen from 15% yesterday to 22%.

**Hurricane "Milton" approaches: Florida in the United States will face its second strong hurricane within two weeks.** On the 9th local time, the National Hurricane Center of the United States stated that Hurricane "Milton" weakened to a Category 4 hurricane as it approached the Florida Peninsula.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services declared on the 8th that Florida has entered a state of public health emergency due to the hurricane weather.

**Musk is betting Tesla's (TSLA.US) future on Robotaxi.** Elon Musk is sacrificing a widely anticipated affordable car to get Robotaxi on the road, disbanding teams focused on other projects and downplaying the impact of slowing Tesla sales.
