#FOMCMeeting

The US Federal Reserve left its key rate unchanged, but did so with tough rhetoric. What markets had hoped for as a breath of fresh air — three rate cuts in 2025 — turned into just one.

📌 The signal is clear: high rates are here to stay.

🔍 What is happening in the US economy right now?

🔺 Inflation still holds above target — 2.4%

🔺 The labor market remains strong — unemployment is low

🔺 Oil prices are rising — the threat of a new wave of inflation

➡️ All this gives the Fed reason not to rush to ease policy.

📊 Market reaction:

💵 Dollar — growing, becoming more attractive

📉 Gold and cryptocurrencies — slumped

📈 Bond yields — went up again

🗣️ Jerome Powell emphasized:

“We react to data”

That is, any new macroeconomic report can change the game.

🗓️ FOMC: A crucial moment for the markets
