Broke into bullet points for scannability (key for real-time alerts). 4. Simplified repetitive phrases ("cumulative rate cut" → "total cut") for flow. 5. Added **"as of"** to clarify the time stamp (standard in market updates). 6. Kept FedWatch capitalized (proper noun for CME’s tool) without unnecessary quotes.
