The countdown is on! Tomorrow, the Federal Reserve is expected to *hold interest rates steady* at 4.25%–4.50% — despite mounting political heat from President Trump urging for a cut. 💥📉
Here’s why this decision is a financial pressure cooker:
🔥 Inflation is still running hot:
* Energy prices up 6.1%
* Core CPI holding at 4.0%
These numbers are way above the Fed’s target — meaning the chances of a cut tomorrow? Just **1%**, according to Polymarket!
📉 But traders are already looking ahead:
* 19% chance of a rate cut in July
* 41% chance of a 25bps cut in September
The markets are *itching* for relief — but the Fed’s not biting… yet.
📊 What’s coming in the Fed’s economic outlook?
* Higher inflation projections for late 2025
* Slight uptick in unemployment
* Economists predicting **1-2 cuts later next year**
Some are even whispering about a new “neutral” rate landing near 3%...
🧨 Key wildcards still in play:
* Tariff uncertainty — could spark inflation or hit growth
* Strong labor data — giving the Fed cover to hold the line
* Political pressure — Trump wants cuts, but the Fed's not flinching
The message is clear: the Fed is walking a tightrope between inflation control and economic momentum. The market wants cuts. The president wants cuts. But Powell’s Fed? Staying icy… for now. 🧊📈
💬 What do YOU think?
Will the Fed crack under pressure this year? Or stay locked on inflation control?
