🏦 The US Federal Reserve Keeps Interest Rates Unchanged... But Easing Signals Are Diminishing
🔹 The rate is stable at 4.25% – 4.50% for the fourth time
🔹 Rate cut expectations have become more cautious
🔹 The number of members opposed to any cuts in 2024 has risen from 4 to 7
🔹 Trump attacks Powell and demands a sharp cut of up to 250 basis points
🔹 Inflation data is weak, but the economy is not giving clear signals
🔹 Markets remain strong, so the Fed is cautious and will not cut now
📌 The Result:
Cautious policy continues… and the cut is postponed until further notice.
