4-bullet brief | narrative

Kalshi puts 66% odds on the Fed holding rates at 4.25%-4.50% with at least one dissent at the June FOMC meeting.
Hammack's public hike warning and her April dissent make the dissent component of this contract highly plausible; the hold component aligns with Kalshi rate ladders pricing below 3.75%.
April CPI at 3.8% and core at 2.8% are the cited inflation triggers; energy costs up 17.9% annually add upward pressure.
Resolves via Bureau of Labor Statistics official FOMC statement; contract requires both a hold decision AND a named dissenting vote.

interp: Kalshi contract at 66% reflects a market split: hold is expected, but the dissent condition adds meaningful uncertainty beyond a simple rate decision.llm_judge_cm_signal_v1
