#FOMCMeeting The June 2025 FOMC Meeting, held on June 17–18, is crucial for global markets. The Federal Reserve is widely expected to hold interest rates steady at 5.25%–5.50%, reflecting persistent inflation concerns and geopolitical uncertainties. Markets will focus heavily on the Summary of Economic Projections (dot plot), which may signal fewer rate cuts in 2025, possibly just one, down from prior expectations. Chair Jerome Powell’s press conference will be closely watched for clues on future policy shifts. With inflation showing modest declines and labor markets starting to soften, the Fed faces a delicate balance between fighting inflation and avoiding economic slowdown. The next key meeting with projections is scheduled for September 16–17, 2025.
