#FOMCMeeting
The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) is holding a critical two-day meeting on June 17–18, with market participants closely watching the outcome. The Fed is widely expected to keep interest rates steady at 4.25–4.50%, citing ongoing inflation concerns. One key factor influencing inflation is the newly introduced tariffs under Trump’s trade policy, which may drive prices higher and pressure the Fed to maintain a cautious stance. Investors had hoped for a rate cut, but these inflationary signals suggest otherwise. Meanwhile, the crypto market remains in a bullish phase, but the FOMC’s decision could inject volatility. A surprise hike or hawkish tone might trigger a sudden dip across risk assets, including crypto. All eyes are now on Jerome Powell and the Fed’s forward guidance in this uncertain economic environment.
