In seeming agreement the risk may be equally high with either a cut or a hike, the markets are in near universal agreement, at least for now, the Fed will not change rates at its next meeting in two weeks.

Will prices increase and by how much?
Any guess would require we know what's going to happen with tariffs and we have NO FREAKIN' CLUE!
Will we have a recession? How deep? How long?
That depends on the tariffs too, don't it?!

My gut tells says we're going to see economic growth drift south and inflation drift north. How much? Very hard to say. If the inflation rate increased just one percent to +3.5% and economic growth fell to -2%, then the FFR should actually stay right where it is at 4.3%.
