#FOMCMeeting

The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting is a key event where U.S. monetary policy decisions are made, primarily concerning interest rates and economic outlook. Held eight times a year, the FOMC evaluates inflation, employment, and GDP growth to determine whether to raise, lower, or hold rates. Its decisions impact global financial markets, influencing asset prices, currency strength, and investor sentiment. Traders and economists closely analyze the FOMC's statement, projections, and press conference for clues about future policy moves. Especially in times of economic uncertainty, the FOMC meeting becomes a crucial driver of market volatility and economic expectations.
