#FOMCMeeting The latest #FOMCMeeting concluded today with the Federal Reserve expected to maintain the federal funds rate at its current range of 4.25%-4.50%. This decision was widely anticipated by economists and market analysts.

While no rate cut occurred, attention now shifts to the Summary of Economic Projections (SEP) and Chair Powell's press conference for clues on future monetary policy. The Fed is navigating persistent inflation concerns, influenced by factors like trade tariffs, alongside signs of a softening labor market. Investors will scrutinize the "dot plot" for insights into potential rate cuts later in 2025, with some anticipating only one cut this year. The market remains highly sensitive to any dovish or hawkish signals.
