    Fed Rate Hikes Aren’t Over: Oil, Inflation & the 2026 Market Outlook | Dennis Shen

    Oil, inflation, interest rates and geopolitics are colliding—and economist Dennis Shen believes energy prices may be the most important signal for markets right now.In this episode of the FXEmpire Podcast, Dennis breaks down the Federal Reserve’s latest rate hike, why another increase may still be ahead, and how elevated crude oil and natural gas prices are feeding directly into the inflation outlook.We also examine what higher-for-longer interest rates mean for the U.S. dollar, gold, European markets and the broader 2026 market outlook.Dennis explains why the current strength in the U.S. dollar appears to be driven more by interest-rate differentials than traditional safe-haven flows, why gold remains highly sensitive to expectations for the Fed, and how quickly falling energy prices could begin changing the inflation picture.We discuss:• Why oil and natural gas are critical indicators for the Fed • Whether another Federal Reserve rate hike is coming • How geopolitical risk is affecting inflation • Why the U.S. economy remains resilient despite higher rates • What falling oil prices could mean for CPI • The ECB’s next potential move • Why the dollar is strengthening • Higher interest rates vs. gold prices • Whether the so-called “Trump put” still matters for equities • Risks building as the economic cycle matures • AI’s growing impact on productivity, jobs and economic growth • The biggest risks markets may be underestimating heading into 2027
