#FOMCMeeting
The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC Meeting) is a highly significant economic event usually held eight times a year by the American Federal Reserve (Fed). During this meeting, committee members discuss appropriate monetary policies based on a comprehensive analysis of the economic situation in the United States and the world, such as inflation rates, economic growth, and unemployment.
The most prominent decision in these meetings is usually regarding the interest rate, where it is raised, lowered, or maintained according to what the committee deems appropriate to maintain price stability and support employment. FOMC decisions directly affect financial markets, especially the currency and stock markets, as they are viewed as a key indicator of upcoming monetary policy trends.
Investors around the world closely follow this event, as statements from the Federal Reserve Chairman or the committee's announcement can impact the value of the US dollar and determine global market trends.
