    "Kalshi ladder prices the Fed funds upper bound in the 3.75-4.00% range post-meeting, with 59% above 3.75% but only 10% above 4.00%.",
    "Warsh's hawkish Jackson Hole posture is consistent with the ladder moving above the 3.75% strike, but the market stops well short of pricing a hike above 4.00%, suggesting limited conviction on an aggressive move; trading volume surged 50x day-over-day, signaling sharp fresh attention.",
    "The companion Kalshi ladder for a later meeting (CM-EVT-MR57HVWJT3) puts 66% above 3.75% and 32% above 4.00%, implying the market sees a slightly higher ceiling further out on the curve.",
    "Resolution turns on the official FOMC statement rate announcement; any language softening the hike bias would collapse the above-3.75% probability rapidly."
