#FOMCMeeting
💼 #FOMCMeeting – The FOMC (Federal Open Market Committee), the committee of the Federal Reserve of the USA, is the main determiner of global monetary policy. The most recent meeting kept interest rates steady at 5.25–5.50%, but only signaled a possible reduction by the end of 2025, disappointing the market.
📌 Immediate effects:
The dollar strengthened, putting pressure on emerging currencies.
Cryptocurrencies corrected, with BTC slightly dropping after the minutes.
The stock market declined, especially Nasdaq, in light of the withdrawal of expectations for quick cuts.
"The FOMC sent a clear message: inflation is still a concern. The cut will come, but only with real signs of slowdown."
