''🎯 All Eyes on the Fed: A High-Stakes Week for U.S. Markets''

1. "📅 Wednesday, July 30 – FOMC Rate Decision"

The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) will announce its latest decision on interest rates. Markets are on edge to see if the Fed will hold steady, hike, or even consider cuts amid evolving inflation and growth data. Any change—or even strong hints—could cause sharp market moves across equities, bonds, and currencies.

2. "🎙️ Wednesday, July 30 – Fed Chair Powell’s Press Conference"

Following the rate decision, Fed Chair Jerome Powell will speak at a press conference. Investors will scrutinize his tone, wording, and outlook for clues on future policy direction—especially regarding inflation trends, recession risks, or when rate cuts might begin. Expect volatility during and after this speech.

3. "📊 Thursday, July 31 – U.S. Q2 GDP (Advance Estimate)"

The first look at second-quarter GDP will offer insights into the strength of the U.S. economy. A strong number could back the Fed’s cautious stance on rate cuts, while a weaker reading might fuel rate-cut speculation. This data often impacts the dollar, stock markets, and Fed expectations.

4. "💼 Friday, August 1 – Nonfarm Payrolls Report (July)"

The U.S. jobs report is one of the most closely watched economic indicators. Strong job growth may suggest the economy remains resilient, possibly delaying rate cuts. Conversely, signs of labor market cooling could support a more dovish Fed outlook. Watch for changes in wages and unemployment, too.
