Goldman Sachs Pushes Back Second Fed Rate Hike Forecast to December
Goldman Sachs has delayed its forecast for a second Federal Reserve rate hike from October to December, citing August core PCE inflation near 3%, below expectations.

HYPE Whales Move Tokens to Exchanges as One Treasury Keeps Buying
This article examines large on-chain HYPE movements within the Hyperliquid ecosystem. Lookonchain tracked 177,518 HYPE (~$16.08M) deposited to OKX and Bybit, plus 62,869 HYPE (~$5.78M) sold by a wallet linked to Hypersphere Ventures. But exchange deposits don't equal sales, making a combined "$22M sell-off" narrative misleading. Meanwhile, a wallet tied to Hyperliquid Strategies bought 494,200 HYPE (~$45.8M) on September 25, and its SEC filing shows ~33.2M HYPE held as of September 8. The article stresses that on-chain attribution is researcher classification, and possibilities shouldn't be treated as facts.

Is Gold Really an Inflation Hedge?
This article examines whether gold truly hedges inflation. While gold preserves value over the long run, it doesn't necessarily rise every time inflation accelerates. Its performance depends more on real yields, monetary policy, the US dollar, and confidence in the financial system than on CPI alone. Real yields are the key variable: when inflation-adjusted returns on bonds or cash are high, the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding gold rises; when real yields fall or turn negative, gold becomes relatively more attractive. The conclusion is that gold is better suited to hedging long-term purchasing power erosion and declining trust in monetary policy than to offsetting every monthly inflation reading.

Pump.Fun Dumps $5.8 Million in SOL in 24 Hours, Total Sell-Off Reaches $848 Million
Pump.fun's fee wallet keeps funneling accumulated SOL fees to centralized exchanges like Kraken, with total sales now at 5,236,623 SOL worth roughly $848 million at an average price of $162. In just the past two hours, about 47,994 SOL (~$5.83 million) was sold, with the largest single transfer hitting 18,608 SOL. The article notes this pattern of periodic transfers every few weeks points to systematic treasury management rather than a one-off liquidation. Despite the persistent sell pressure, SOL has climbed from around $75 in early August to over $123, suggesting buy-side demand has fully absorbed the selling.

Howard Marks: US Fiscal Discipline Is Out of Control—Buying Bonds to Suppress Yields Is Just 'Putting an Ice Pack on a Feverish Patient'
Oaktree co-founder Howard Marks warns in a memo that runaway US fiscal discipline is the root cause of rising long-term bond yields. He criticizes expanded long-bond buybacks as a superficial fix, likening them to putting an ice pack on a feverish patient. Marks points to three structural pressures: a fiscal deficit around 6% of GDP, sticky inflation, and massive capital demand from AI infrastructure buildout. The real solution, he argues, is greater fiscal responsibility and slower spending growth—not market manipulation. On asset allocation, he doesn't oppose modest diversification away from dollar assets but warns that timing a large-scale shift is difficult, and America's overall advantages remain compelling.

Australia's 40-Year Outlook Highlights AI, Leaves Out Crypto
Australia's Treasury released its seventh Intergenerational Report, projecting the economy through 2065-66. AI is named as one of five major long-term transformations, while crypto is absent from the report's core agenda. The report focuses on AI automation, shifting skill demands, and the rise of agentic AI systems. Separately, the government's financial innovation strategy links AI agents to real-time, interoperable, programmable payment infrastructure, with the DFCRC estimating that full adoption of digital finance could add A$24 billion to Australia's economy each year.
