#FOMCMeeting The meeting of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) of the Federal Reserve of the United States is currently taking place on May 6 and 7, 2025. The results of this meeting are expected tomorrow, May 7, at 2 PM Eastern Time, followed by a press conference at 2:30 PM.
Financial markets are closely monitoring this meeting, particularly due to economic uncertainties related to the trade policies of the Trump administration. President Trump has urged the Fed to lower interest rates, but the central bank has shown resistance to this request so far.
Analysts expect the Fed to maintain its current benchmark rate of 4.25% to 4.5%, due to concerns about persistent inflation and economic uncertainties. However, some anticipate a rate cut later in the year, potentially in July or December, if the economy deteriorates further.
Markets are also watching developments related to trade deficits and corporate earnings, such as those from AMD and Disney, which could provide indications on the direction of monetary policy and economic health.
