The outcomes of the meeting influence the markets, particularly the dollar, gold, stocks, and cryptocurrencies. If the interest rate is raised, gold and bitcoin often tend to decrease while the dollar strengthens. If it is maintained or lowered, risky assets may increase. Thus, investors or traders can leverage the forecasts and results, and adjust their positions before or after the announcement based on the expected market movements.
