Fed Rate Decision, Crypto Legislation Vote, and Bank of Japan Meeting to Trigger Volatility

Global markets are bracing for a volatile stretch in September, with the Federal Reserve's rate decision, a crypto legislation vote, and a Bank of Japan meeting all happening within days of each other. The US economic calendar is also packed, with data releases shaping sentiment ahead of the Fed's decision. The Fed's September meeting is seen as the most consequential of Chair Kevin Warsh's tenure, with markets expecting a rate hike despite President Trump's threats to halt trade with countries running a deficit with the US.
