Your chart is for FFIP options.
If you use the Futures button, the chance of 0.25% cut is 62%, chance of 0.50% cut is 38% today.

gunner: Yes, we talked about the options and futures buttons last time and I always choose the options button because it includes both options and futures data … the futures button uses the Fed Fund futures data alone.
