S&P 500 falls 0.8% amid steady inflation and Fed rate hike expectations

The S&P 500 dropped 0.8% to 7,656.98 in the week ending 11 September 2026, falling 1.8% below its record high from August. Inflation remained steady with the Consumer Price Index at 3.4%, prompting the CME Group's FedWatch Tool to predict four more quarter-point rate hikes by the Federal Reserve. Meanwhile, the Atlanta Fed lowered its GDP growth forecast for Q3 2026 to 4.4% from 4.7%. These factors suggest cautious investor sentiment as the economy shows signs of slowing growth amid ongoing inflation concerns.
