The market continues to focus on catalysts that could influence the Fed's next interest rate decision.

Regarding economic data released on Wednesday: U.S. initial jobless claims for the previous week fell to 216,000, below expectations. The Fed's Beige Book report on economic conditions released Wednesday indicated that U.S. economic activity changed little in recent weeks, but overall consumer spending declined further, with high-end consumers being an exception.

The Beige Book survey report showed that employment decreased slightly and prices rose moderately.

Analysis suggests that Fed officials will not receive most of the October and November labor market and inflation data until after the December FOMC meeting.

According to CME "FedWatch": The probability of a 25 basis point rate cut by the Fed in December is 84.9%, while the probability of maintaining the current rate is 15.1%. The probability of a cumulative 25 basis point rate cut by the Fed by next January is 66.4%, the probability of maintaining the current rate is 11.1%, and the probability of a cumulative 50 basis point rate cut is 22.6%.
