**JUST IN:** 🇺🇸 Goldman Sachs warns high inflation could lead to more interest rate hikes next year.

Goldman Sachs has warned that persistently high US inflation could force the Federal Reserve into additional interest rate hikes next year, according to a Watcher Guru report. The transmission mechanism runs through inflation repricing: if rate expectations rise, the discount rate applied to future cash flows increases, compressing equity valuations and tightening financial conditions across risk assets. Goldman Sachs (GS) is directly exposed as a bank, since its earnings are sensitive to the level and slope of the yield curve, net interest margins in its lending businesses, and the trading and capital markets activity that tends to shift with rate volatility. Traders will be watching the next Consumer Price Index release and the Federal Reserve's updated dot plot for signals on whether the terminal rate path is being revised upward.

HIGH-impact news is typically a market-moving event with multi-pip or multi-percent intraday reactions. Examples include central bank rate decisions, major CPI/NFP releases, geopolitical shocks, mega-cap earnings beats/misses, and regulatory announcements. Traders typically position-reduce or hedge ahead of scheduled HIGH-impact events, and follow the wire in real time to react to unscheduled ones (war headlines, central-bank emergency statements, surprise corporate actions). The Trading News Terminal squawk box reads every HIGH-impact headline aloud the moment it hits the wire — so active traders don't have to stare at the feed.

Active traders typically follow a three-step workflow when a market-moving headline hits the wire: (1) read the headline on the terminal or hear it on the squawk box; (2) assess whether the news is already priced in (by checking intraday price action in the seconds before) or whether it's genuinely new information; (3) act — either entering a breakout position, fading an overreaction, or tightening stops on existing trades. Trading News Terminal's Pro plan delivers wire-grade headlines within seconds of the source, with automatic audio squawk on every HIGH-impact event, so the read-assess-act cycle never waits on a refresh button.
