A Fed rate hike is now more likely than not by December 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the near-vertical AI rally that has carried Wall Street to record highs over the past six weeks, this is the moment reality reasserts itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The CME FedWatch tool \u2013 which aggregates probabilities derived from Fed funds futures and translates them into the implied likelihood of each policy band at every upcoming FOMC meeting \u2013 now shows a 56% chance of a hike by the end of the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The curve does not stop there.

April retail sales rose 0.5% month-over-month, the third consecutive solid increase, with the control group that feeds GDP also up 0.5%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Atlanta Fed\u2019s GDPNow tracker promptly revised second-quarter real GDP growth from 3.7% to 4.0% annualized.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The piece that mattered most for the curve was import prices. The index rose 4.2% year-over-year in April, the highest annual pace since October 2022, driven by a 19% surge in petroleum prices as the Strait of Hormuz remains closed and oil holds near $100 per barrel.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Earlier this week, the producer inflation report came in far hotter than expected, with headline producer prices jumping by 1.4% month-on-month in April, and by 6% on an annual basis \u2013 both marking the highest acceleration in four years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe had based our Fed rate call on the assumption that the U.S. was relatively isolated from imported energy inflation, but Wednesday\u2019s data somewhat brings this view into question, with the geopolitical shock acting to further amplify sticky price pressures in both services and shelter,\u201d said&nbsp;<strong>Matthew Ryan,<\/strong>&nbsp;global head of market strategy at Ebury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Friday\u2019s Risk-Off: AI Stocks, Gold, Silver, Copper All Take The Hit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The premarket tape on Friday made the cross-asset repricing explicit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Futures on major U.S. indices were down over 1%, with the Nasdaq 100 slipping 1.9%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The worst-performing Nasdaq 100 names in the premarket were the AI infrastructure stocks that have powered the index to records.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Marvell Technology Inc.<\/strong>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/quote\/MRVL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">(NASDAQ:<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/quote\/MRVL\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">MRVL<\/a>)&nbsp;dropped 5.57%.<strong>&nbsp;Intel Corp.<\/strong>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/quote\/INTC\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">(NASDAQ:<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/quote\/INTC\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">INTC<\/a>)&nbsp;fell 4.60%.&nbsp;<strong>ASML Holding N.V.&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/quote\/ASML\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">(NASDAQ:<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/quote\/ASML\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ASML<\/a>)&nbsp;lost 4.21%.&nbsp;<strong>Arm Holdings plc&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/quote\/ARM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">(NASDAQ:<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/quote\/ARM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ARM<\/a>)&nbsp;was down 4.08%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the broader S&amp;P 500, the same theme repeated.&nbsp;<strong>Coherent Corp.<\/strong>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/quote\/COHR\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">(NYSE:<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/quote\/COHR\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">COHR<\/a>)&nbsp;led losses at 4.80%, followed by Intel, 4.22%, with<strong>&nbsp;Corning Inc.<\/strong>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/quote\/GLW\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">(NYSE:<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/quote\/GLW\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GLW<\/a>)&nbsp;and Lumentum Holdings Inc.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/quote\/LITE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">(NASDAQ:<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/quote\/LITE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LITE<\/a>)&nbsp;close behind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The mechanism is straightforward. AI infrastructure stocks carry the longest equity duration in the index \u2014 most of their valuation lives in cash flows still years away \u2014 and they have been the biggest source of S&amp;P 500 gains since the war began.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The metals complex told the same story without the equity-duration translation layer. Gold dropped 2.09% to $4,554 per ounce. Silver collapsed 5.93% to $78.45. Copper slid 4.36% to $6.28 per pound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8212;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Originally Posted May 15, 2026 &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.benzinga.com\/markets\/equities\/26\/05\/52594708\/ai-rally-meets-bond-market-fed-hike-odds-may-2026\">The Bond Market Just Fired A Warning Shot At The AI Rally \u2014 Fed Rate Hike Ahead<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For most of 2026 the Federal Reserve\u2019s next move was a question with a single answer.
