The International Brotherhood of Teamsters has experienced substantial growth, adding 50,000 new members in just two and a half years, thanks in part by the cannabis industry.
General president Sean M. O'Brien credited the membership growth to workers' increasing dissatisfaction with corporate practices. 
"We're making this International Union bigger, faster, and stronger," O'Brien <a href="https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/teamsters-organize-50-000-new-members-in-less-than-three-years-302264475.html">stated</a>. "These organizing numbers show that workers are fighting back against corporate greed and joining the Teamsters in record numbers."
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Union Success In The Cannabis Industry</h3>
Part of this growth stems from the Teamsters' organizing efforts within the booming cannabis sector. Last year the union achieved a significant presence across the entire <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/23/07/33135060/teamsters-now-represents-workers-in-every-component-of-the-cannabis-supply-chain">cannabis supply chain</a>, from cultivation and distribution to retail.

Beyond this expansion, the Teamsters have also expanded their influence into other non-traditional industries.
"The labor movement is more robust than it's been in generations," said general secretary-treasurer Fred Zuckerman. "The Teamsters are proud to represent more diverse workers in various sectors, including cannabis."

Teamsters Added 50,000 New Members In Less Than 3 Years, Partly Due To Cannabis Industry Growth

The Brazilian mining giant Vale SA (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VALE#NYSE">VALE</a>) announced its commitment to significantly boost <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/copper">copper</a> production under its new CEO, Gustavo Pimenta.
Pimenta, a former CFO who became CEO after a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40597248/vale-selects-cfo-gustavo-pimenta-as-new-ceo-ending-turbulent-succession-process">turbulent succession process</a>, spoke to the media for the first time in his new role. He <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-10-02/vale-backs-brazil-critical-minerals-fund-in-nod-to-government">acknowledged</a> that Vale has "fallen behind on copper " compared to industry peers but plans to close that gap, Bloomberg reported.
This year, Vale expects to produce between 320,000 and 355,000 metric tons of copper — well below the output of its size-related industry peers. Pimenta plans to raise the output of its assets in Brazil, Canada and Indonesia to around 500,000 tons before considering other options.
In addition to growing copper production, Vale focuses on investments in strategic minerals essential for the global energy transition. The firm has been under pressure from the Brazilian government, which pleaded for increased domestic investments.
In collaboration with Brazil's development bank, BNDES, Vale will invest around $184 million in junior and mid-sized companies working on minerals like nickel and cobalt — crucial for electric vehicles and renewable energy technologies.
Despite these ambitions, Vale faces several challenges. As the largest iron ore producer globally, the firm has experienced a slowdown in China's economy, a critical market for that commodity. Additionally, the aftermath of the catastrophic 2015 dam collapse still requires <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/01/36799749/brazilian-judge-slams-mining-giants-vale-and-bhp-with-9-67b-charges-over-dam-collapse-report">substantial financial and legal settlements</a>, creating a drain on the firm's resources.
However, Vale's rapidly evolving copper market peers are not sitting idle. Barrick has been ramping production and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40851842/barrick-to-complete-feasibility-study-for-lumwana-mine-expansion-start-construction-in-2025">investing $2 billion </a>in expansion at its Lumwana mine in Zambia, which is set to double copper output to 240,000 tons per year by 2028. Barrick is also advancing its Reko Diq project in Pakistan, further boosting its copper and gold production.
Meanwhile, Australian miner BHP has identified copper as a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/large-cap/24/10/41114374/bhp-sees-trend-reversal-in-copper-growth-warns-recycling-wont-be-enough">key growth pillar</a>, anticipating a 70% increase in global demand by 2050. BHP is expanding its copper portfolio, focusing on existing operations and potential new projects like Oak Dam in Australia, addressing aging mines and declining ore grades.
With copper touted as a cornerstone metal for the green tech transition, Vale's new management has a lot of ground to cover before catching up to its competitors which are committed to multi-billion-dollar projects.

BIC Rolls Out Snoop Dogg And Martha Stewart-Inspired Limited-Edition Accessory, Here's Where To Find It

Social media company Meta Platforms Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>) has paid out over $2 billion to content creators this year as it works to boost monetization efforts for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38085248/instagram-creators-can-now-earn-upto-30k-in-a-month-with-reels-photo-carousels-and-more-as-meta-revi">users of the platform.</a>
Here's a look at what the company has done and what's next.
 What Happened: Meta Platforms&#8217; Facebook began monetization efforts in 2017 because it wanted to compete with other social media platforms and<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/youtube"> video outlets such as YouTube.</a>
The company has paid out $2 billion over the last year with payouts for short-form videos and Reels up 80% year-over-year, as <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2024/10/02/facebook-says-it-paid-content-creators-2b-this-year/">reported </a>by TechCrunch.
Facebook said that more than four million content creators have earned money from the platform since 2017.
While the $2 billion figure is large and could be eye-catching to lure content creators to Facebook, the figure is a fraction of the $70 billion paid out by YouTube to content creators over the last three years as part of its partner program, TechCrunch reported.

</ul>
 What's Next: To help grow its content creation, Meta announced several changes this week.
The company is <a href="https://about.fb.com/news/2024/10/monetize-content-facebooks-new-streamlined-program/">rolling </a>out Facebook Content Monetization, which combines three existing creator monetization efforts (in-stream ads, ads on Reels, Performance bonus) into one platform.
Creators on the new platform can earn from photos, text posts, short videos and longer videos, according to the company.
"We're proud of how our monetization programs have helped creators thrive on Facebook, but we know that the different availability, eligibility requirements and sign-up processes of our various programs have resulted in some creators missing opportunities and other not being eligible to earn from all available formats," the company said.
With the new platform, creators only have to join one platform with several ways to monetize their content.
The company sent out invitations to one million creators as part of the content monetization beta launch. Additional invitations will be sent in the "following months."
Open enrollment for the content monetization platform begins in 2025.
META Price Action: Meta stock closed Monday up 1.74% to $582.77 on Thursday versus a 52-week trading range of $279.40 to $583.36. Meta stock is up 68.3% year-to-date in 2024.

Afrimat (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AFTLF#OTC">AFTLF</a>) is known for its operations in lime, iron ore, anthracite and manganese, has made a move into the hemp industry by partnering with legacy brand Hemporium.
Together, they are using hemp-based materials to expand a building in Cape Town. This venture raises questions: is Afrimat betting on the future of South Africa&#8217;s hemp industry, or is it a PR stunt?
The investment comes at a time when South Africa is pushing to grow the sector, having recently issued 1,110 permits for hemp cultivation as part of the government&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/09/40887359/south-africa-issues-1-110-hemp-licenses-is-the-industry-leaving-small-farmers-behind">master plan</a> under the Cannabis for Private Purposes Bill.
Afrimat's involvement could provide the industry with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/07/39824908/south-african-companies-prepare-for-new-cannabis-regulations-experts-expect-lots-of-fundraising-">much-needed capital to scale</a>.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Afrimat's Green Transition</h3>
Afrimat's collaboration with Hemporium signals the company's interest in sustainability.&nbsp;
Beyond its mining operations, the publicly-traded Afrimat has been working on renewable energy initiatives, recycling mining by-products and rehabilitating mined-out areas through reforestation and water conservation projects, <a href="https://hemptoday.net/what-is-a-mining-conglomerate-like-south-africas-afrimat-doing-in-industrial-hemp/">reported</a> Hemp Today. 
Mining operations for materials like lime, iron ore, anthracite and manganese have significant environmental impacts. Iron ore mining, for example, can <a href="https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11270-024-07048-x">contaminate water sources </a>through increased sediment levels and metal runoff, while the removal of vegetation for mining operations drastically reduces biodiversity. <a href="https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-030-38152-3_8">Limestone mining </a>similarly contributes to environmental degradation by altering land-use patterns and causing dust and noise pollution, which can harm local ecosystems and communities.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Hemp Town</h3>
The hemp-lime block technology used in Cape Town, combined with specialized binders, promises to offer a sustainable alternative in the construction industry.&nbsp;
Hemporium and <a href="https://www.afrimathemp.co.za/">Afrimat Hemp</a>, a subsidiary of Afrimat, are nearing the completion of a seven-story expansion on an existing five-story building. The new structure, built with 28 cm-thick hemp blocks, will bring the building's total height to 12 stories.&nbsp;
The space will house Hemporium's flagship retail outlet, where they will sell<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/hemp"> hemp-derived</a> clothing, skincare and CBD products, along with a steak restaurant and 50 hotel rooms.
The walls are built with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/02/37271000/u-s-army-invests-1-9m-to-develop-hemp-manufactured-buildings-for-military-operations">hempcrete blocks</a>, made by Afrimat Hemp from European hemp hurd and locally sourced lime, capable of withstanding fire for 135 minutes.
The building also features solar panels, smart metering, a borehole with filtration for backup water and a thermally activated building system (TABS) to regulate temperature without mechanical heating or cooling.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">How Is Concrete Made Out Of Hemp? </h3>
Hempcrete, a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/07/40027836/hempcrete-project-gets-6-2m-epa-grant-to-develop-eco-friendly-construction-materials">sustainable building material</a>, begins with harvesting the stalks of the hemp plant. Once harvested, the stalks are left on the ground for 10 to 14 days to degrade the outer fibers. This microbial breakdown helps release the inner woody core, known as the hemp hurd, which is the essential construction material.
After this process, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/hemp">hemp</a> stalks are collected, crushed and sorted to separate the fiber from the hurd. The hurd, chopped into small particles (typically around 1 inch), is cleaned to remove dust, ensuring the quality of the material.
The next step involves mixing the processed hemp hurd with lime and water. The typical ratio is three parts hemp, one part lime, and one part water, although these proportions can vary depending on the humidity and specific requirements of the project. This mixture is then used to create blocks or panels for construction.
In some cases, the mixture is poured into molds to make bricks, which are compacted and allowed to air dry or placed in an oven. Alternatively, for larger structures, the mixture can be poured directly into formwork to create whole walls, reducing the need for individual brick assembly.
Hempcrete is known for being lightweight &#8211; 50% lighter than traditional concrete &#8211; and ten times more insulating, offering an eco-friendly and flexible building solution.

Despite achieving <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/04/38076225/another-record-breaking-month-for-new-mexicos-cannabis-industry-heres-how-much-retailers-garnere">over $1 billion in sales</a> since the legalization of recreational cannabis 29 months ago, New Mexico&#8217;s cannabis industry is grappling with severe regulatory challenges. A year-long <a href="https://www.krqe.com/news/larry-barker/the-new-mexico-cannabis-cowboys-modern-day-desperados/">investigation</a> by KRQE&#8217;s Larry Baker has uncovered serious regulatory issues in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/new-mexico-cannabis">New Mexico's cannabis industry</a>, which has attracted lawbreakers and crime networks.&nbsp;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Lack Of Regulatory Oversight</h2>
According to the report, the Cannabis Control Division (CCD) is under-resourced, with only nine inspectors overseeing 3,000 licensed cannabis businesses. This understaffing has led to a situation where many operations go uninspected, allowing criminal enterprises, some linked to international criminal networks in Mexico and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/06/39559399/new-mexicos-dark-discovery-chinese-workers-trapped-on-illegal-cannabis-farms">China</a>, to thrive without scrutiny. This loophole could be the result of the state&#8217;s licensing process.
In a podcast <a href="https://www.krqe.com/podcasts/the-growing-black-market-inside-new-mexicos-cannabis-industry/">interview</a> with KRQE, Duke Rodriguez, CEO of Ultra Health, New Mexico's largest cannabis operator, highlighted the gravity of the situation, revealing that two-thirds of the state's cannabis activity remains illicit. He criticized the state&#8217;s licensing system, describing it as an ineffective &#8220;honor system,&#8221; where applicants are granted licenses with the assumption they won&#8217;t violate regulations.
Rodriguez explained that inspections occur only after the license is issued and the business is already operational. The state can only intervene if irregularities are found during these inspections. "You won't see that anywhere else in the country," added Larry Barker, noting that enforcement delays often mean businesses can operate for 12 to 18 months without proper oversight.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Change In The State&#8217;s Regulatory Approach</h3>
Rodriguez also pointed out that under the old <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/22/04/26481542/new-mexico-legal-cannabis-program-up-and-running-raking-in-millions">medical cannabis program</a>, such infractions would have led to immediate license suspension or revocation. However, since <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/21/04/20589377/adult-use-cannabis-is-now-legal-in-new-mexico-gov-signs-legalization-expungement-bills">recreational cannabis legalization</a>, the lack of enforcement has allowed illegal operations to flourish unchecked. &#8220;The lack of enforcement is hurting the state&#8217;s economy,&#8221; he said, adding that the regulated market struggles to compete with its illicit counterpart.
"The state simply took its hands off the steering wheel … just issue a license to anyone who marked the boxes. And that's what they did," Rodriguez said. He added that while Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham celebrated the state surpassing $1 billion in legal cannabis sales in March 2024, most of the sales figures were tied to political optics rather than a reflection of a healthy market.The CCD's limited ability to collect fines or shut down rogue operations further complicates the situation.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Systemic Lack Of Enforcement</h3>
Barker's investigation found that only about 10% of cannabis businesses consistently comply with reporting regulations. Even when the CCD takes action, it struggles to enforce penalties. Barker cited one <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/01/36473694/new-mexico-clamps-down-2m-fines-for-cannabis-farm-violations">cannabis farm fined $1 million</a> for rule violations, but it remains unpaid and the farm is still operational. "They have the authority to issue fines but not to collect them," Barker explained, highlighting the regulatory division's limited power.
Rodriguez echoed these concerns, saying that the state's lack of enforcement has fostered a rampant illicit market. "We're just creating this overly illegal, illicit black market," he said, noting that the number of rogue operations likely extends beyond what has been uncovered.

What Happened With Vistra, Constellation Energy Stocks Today?

Cannabis consumption provides medicinal benefits, even when deemed recreational. Whether for pain, stress, anxiety or sleep, consumers' motivations often overlap across both categories.
Recent research from<a href="https://newfrontierdata.com/"> New Frontier Data </a>looks at how these motivations blur traditional distinctions between medical and recreational marijuana use, challenging perceptions about their differences.
As the cannabis industry grows, this overlap becomes even more significant. Investors who understand these shifting behaviors and evolving legal frameworks in each state will be best positioned to capitalize on the next wave of growth opportunities.

You can&#8217;t afford to miss out if you're serious about the business.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">New Frontiers For Cannabis&nbsp;</h3>
The study surveyed 3,868 U.S. cannabis consumers, asking them to classify their use as medical, recreational, or both. It analyzed consumption patterns, demographics, and spending habits, offering key insights into what drives different types of users.&nbsp;
This data sheds light on consumer behavior and its impact on market trends.
States like <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/ohio-cannabis">Ohio</a> have already transitioned to recreational cannabis, while <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/florida-cannabis">Florida</a>, is poised for legalization in 2024 if a ballot initiative is approved. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/arkansas-cannabis">Arkansas</a>, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/nebraska-cannabis">Nebraska</a>, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/south-dakota-cannabis">South Dakota</a>, and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/07/39602457/majority-of-north-dakotans-are-against-legal-weed-new-poll-finds">North Dakota</a> are also advancing ballot initiatives. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/pennsylvania-cannabis">Pennsylvania</a> and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/wisconsin-cannabis">Wisconsin</a> are pushing forward despite political challenges.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Gender Differences And Consumer Behavior</h3>
According to the survey, women make up 46% of the cannabis consumer base and are more likely than men to use cannabis solely for medical purposes. However, both genders report similar rates of recreational use. 
Additionally, home growers, though representing a minority at 54% of non-growers, are significantly more likely to use cannabis for both medical and recreational purposes​. 
"Market type is significantly correlated with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/05/38972587/who-is-buying-marijuana-and-why-market-data-provides-behavior-profiles-insights-for-investors">self-identified consumer type</a>. It is interesting to note that, even in medical-only markets, 27% of consumers consider themselves recreational only," reads the report.&nbsp;
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Who Spends The Most? </h3>
Medical-only consumers exhibit higher<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/06/39540101/budget-conscious-consumers-boost-sales-of-marijuana-multipacks-94-brands-vie-for-colorados-pre-r"> spending habits</a>, with many spending over $400 per purchase. By contrast, recreational consumers typically spend under $50, with some even obtaining cannabis for free. This discrepancy highlights the deeper financial commitment of those using cannabis for medical reasons, often tied to long-term therapeutic needs.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">How Often?&nbsp;</h3>
Those who use cannabis for both medical and recreational purposes consume more frequently, often <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/02/37221610/how-many-joints-a-day-are-safe-researchers-identify-methods-for-weed-consumption-within-healthy-">multiple times per day</a>, while recreational-only users tend to consume the least. The report found that medical users are far more likely to report positive impacts on their lives from cannabis use, whereas recreational users often cite a mixed effect.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Market Loyalty</h3>
Medical users also show greater loyalty to specific businesses, purchasing from the same source for product consistency and reliability. In contrast, recreational users are less likely to stick with one store, leaning toward more varied buying habits. 
This difference underscores the need for reliable, consistent products in medical marijuana markets.
&#8220;Medical-only consumers were the most likely to say that they always source their <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/03/37666783/marijuana-shoppers-favorite-strains-2024">cannabis from the same business</a>, while recreational-only consumers were the most likely to say they buy from different stores. This reflects the need of medical consumers to have consistent access to the same products,&#8221; reads the report.

Retail industry veteran Seth Golden recently warned that, according to a widely used oscillator Williams %R, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/s-p-500">S&amp;P 500</a> has been overbought for an entire year.
Golden, a hedge fund consultant who previously worked for household names such as Target and now-defunct Bed Bath &amp; Beyond, pointed out that this is just the 23rd time in history that this has occurred.
Based on historical data he shared in a post on <a href="https://x.com/SethCL/status/1841808020705075700">X</a>, he pointed out that when this happened, it continued the same trend for the rest of the year — posting a fourth-quarter median return of 5.29%.
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/11/04/1035270/pros-and-cons-of-williams-r-indicator">Williams %R</a>, often dubbed the Williams percent range, is a momentum indicator. It measures the overbought and oversold levels on a scale from 0 to 100. A reading above -20 is overbought and a reading below -80 is oversold.
Golden used a 28-month parameter, an industry standard for this indicator.

Looking deeper into the list of overbought stocks brings an interesting mix of domestic and foreign catalysts.
Lockheed Martin's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LMT#NYSE">LMT</a>) presence on this list is unsurprising. The leading aerospace and defense manufacturer&#8217;s stock hit a fresh all-time high, reaching $609 and giving it a market cap of over $144B. The firm benefits from increased defense spending during <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/10/41126038/iran-attacks-israel-with-missiles-middle-east-tensions-escalates-s-p-500-stocks-bitcoin-fall-as-oil">escalating global conflicts</a> and with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/10/41164528/lockheed-wins-2-1b-contract-to-aid-trident-ii-d5-missile-program">new multi-billion U.S. Navy contract</a> it landed last Thursday. Despite a hefty $19.26B debt, the firm has the balance sheet to easily manage it, plus pay a reliable 2.1% dividend. Its Williams %R overbought score is currently -11.41.
Next on the list is Lowe's Companies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LOW#NYSE">LOW</a>), a North Carolina-based retailer specializing in home improvement. It recently hit a new all-time high of $274.16. Along with other home improvement stocks, Lowe <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/09/41008424/lowes-set-for-delayed-benefits-from-macro-demand-improvements-says-optimistic-analy">experienced a surge</a> following the FED's rate cut. Still, this strong performance is surprising, given the firm's revenue decline of nearly 10% year over year and dimmed future growth projections. Its Williams %R overbought score is currently -5.71.
Entergy Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ETR#NYSE">ETR</a>) has been a utility industry standout, delivering an almost 30% return year-to-date. Despite such numbers, the stock trades at a reasonable P/E ratio of 15.9x, below some of its peers like Exelon or FirstEnergy.
Entergy provides electric power to the southern U.S. states, benefiting from rapid energy growth in states such as Texas. Investors expect the company to scale with its target market, with a booming population and increased industrial activity prompting higher energy consumption. The stock's Williams %R overbought score currently stands at -7.41.

iShares Russell 2000 ETF가 추적하는 러셀(Russell) 2000 소형주 지수는 2023년 10월 이후 최고의 주간 실적을 기록하여 6% 이상 급등하여 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/small-caps" target="_blank" rel="noopener" data-google-interstitial="false">2022년 1월 이후</a> 최고 수준에 도달했다.
이러한 랠리는 주로 목요일 세션에 의해 주도되었으며, 러셀 2000 지수는 일일 3.6%라는 놀라운 상승률을 기록했다. 이번 급등은 예상보다 낮은 6월 인플레이션 데이터에 따른 것이며, 이로 인해 잠재적인 금리 인하 가능성에 대한 기대가 강화되었다.
그러나 LPL 파이낸셜의 최고 글로벌 전략가인 퀸시 크로스비(Quincy Krosby)는 러셀 2000의 금리 인하 메시지가 &#8220;노동 시장에 대한 연방준비제도(연준)의 우려로 인해 흐려질 수 있다&#8221;고 시사하면서 주의를 조언했다.
크로스비는 노동시장 약화가 경제적으로 민감한 러셀 2000 지수에 여전히 타격을 줄 것이며, 금리 인하가 반드시 더 광범위한 경기 둔화로부터 지수를 보호할 수는 없을 것이라고 생각한다.

러셀 2000의 인상적인 성과는 투자자들이 거대 기술 기업들에서 벗어나 더 넓은 시장으로 직접 유입됨에 따라 금리에 민감한 중소형주가 이익을 얻는 등 시장 초점의 상당한 변화를 강조한다고 크로스비가 강조했다.
이 분석가는 러셀 2000이 잠재적인 금리 완화와 광범위한 경제 상황에 대한 중요한 지표 역할을 한다고 지적했다. 일반적으로 중소형주 유니버스는 매력적인 밸류에이션에도 불구하고 심각한 경기 둔화 조짐이 보이면 매도할 것이다.
"역사적으로 러셀 2000은 첫 번째 금리 인하 이후 3개월 동안 시장보다 뒤쳐졌다. 연준이 일반적으로 경제, 특히 노동 시장에 대한 우려로 금리를 인하하기 때문이다. 파월 의장은 연준의 최대 고용 의무화를 계속해서 주장하면서 연준이 경제 지원을 위해 더 빠른 속도로 금리를 인하할 것이라는 점을 분명히 했다"고 그녀가 말했다.
노동 시장 상황이 악화되면 연준은 예정된 9월 18일 회의보다 더 빨리 완화 주기를 시작할 수도 있다고 크로스비는 말했다. 시장에서는 경기 호조 속에서 인플레이션 완화에 따른 금리 인하를 선호하고 있다.
