ING now expects the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank to raise rates once each before the end of this year, reversing its earlier forecast that rates would remain unchanged. According to Odaily, ING economists said recent meetings at the Fed and ECB suggest the two central banks are unlikely to pursue the very loose monetary policy they had previously expected. The economists said both central banks are facing supply-side shocks driven by surging energy prices, although the impact on the broader economy remains limited. They also pointed to memories of the sharp rise in inflation in 2022 and the delayed policy response. The economists expect both central banks could raise rates in December.

Peterson Foundation survey found that 81% of respondents in competitive Senate race states said they are more likely to vote for candidates with plans to avoid automatic Social Security benefit cuts than for a candidate who promises not to touch Social Security. The online poll surveyed 2,500 registered voters in Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, Ohio and Texas between Aug. 20 and Aug. 27, with a margin of error of 4.4%. The survey also found that once respondents were told about the projected 2032 depletion of the Social Security trust fund and the potential for a 22% cut to benefits without congressional action, support for Social Security reforms rose to 91% from 49%. That 91% included 92% of Republicans, 90% of Democrats, 94% of respondents age 65 and over, 92% of those ages 45 to 64 and 87% of those ages 18 to 44. Among the reform options tested, 72% supported increasing the payroll tax cap by 1% for all income above $184,500. Another 66% favored capping Social Security benefits so no retired couple would receive more than $100,000 a year, while 65% backed reducing benefits for the top 20% of earners and 65% supported gradual benefit adjustments and tax increases. Just 29% said they would support government borrowing to avoid automatic benefit cuts.
