$BTC #FOMCMeeting

The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting is the event where monetary policy makers at the U.S. central bank (the Federal Reserve) come together to discuss the state of the U.S. economy and make important decisions, such as raising or lowering interest rates.

Why is it important?

Because the decision that comes out of the meeting can shake global markets! If they raise interest rates, stock markets may drop, and the dollar may rise. Conversely, if they lower rates, the opposite may happen.

How often does it occur?

The meeting is held approximately 8 times a year, and each time investors await it as if it were a final match!

The goal?

To achieve a balance between two things:

Supporting economic growth

and controlling inflation.
