#FOMCMeeting

🚨 #FOMCMeeting Update (June 17‑18, 2025) 🚨

✅ The Fed holds rates at 4.25%–4.50%—as widely expected.

📉 CPI & PPI showed cooler inflation, but Fed remains cautious—tariff risks loom large.

👥 Labor market still strong (unemployment ~4.2%, solid jobs growth), giving Fed room to wait.

📊 The new dot‑plot likely signals fewer rate cuts in 2025, with markets pushing first cut to September–October.

🎯 Fed emphasizes “data‑driven, non‑political” approach amid Trump’s pressure to slash rates.
