#FOMCMeeting by #MkfHashmi

The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) is meeting June 17-18, 2025, to assess the U.S. economy and decide on the federal funds rate, currently at 4.25%-4.5%. No rate cut is expected, as economists predict the Fed will hold steady due to persistent inflation and economic uncertainty, partly driven by tariff concerns. The FOMC will release its policy decision and updated economic projections, including the "dot plot," on June 18 at 2 p.m. ET, followed by a press conference from Chair Jerome Powell at 2:30 p.m. ET, livestreamed on the Federal Reserve’s YouTube and social media. Investors are focused on hints about future rate paths amid risks of higher inflation and unemployment.
