The market is reacting again and will return to its normal rhythm with the volumes of buying and selling, demand and supply with the preferences of the consumer or investor.

The market awaited the outcome of the Committee meeting with high expectations, and officially, "Jerome Powell, the Chairman of the Federal Reserve (Fed) of the United States, announced today, Wednesday, July 30, 2025, that the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) has decided to keep the benchmark interest rates unchanged, in a range of 4.25%-4.50%.

This is the fifth consecutive meeting in which the Fed has maintained stable rates. Powell indicated that the decision was made amid high economic uncertainty, including the potential impact of new tariffs, and while inflation remains slightly above the Fed's 2% target. He stated that the committee will continue to assess economic data to determine future adjustments in monetary policy.

Although some economists and investors expected a rate cut in September, Powell's comments suggest that a cut in the next meeting is now less likely, as the Fed needs more data to ensure that inflation is returning to its target and that the labor market remains strong without overheating.

Once again, despite a vote of 9 in favor and 2 against this decision, Trump has not been able to influence monetary policy, and despite economic growth indicators showing a slight recovery and inflation remaining somewhat above expectations, the Fed does not succumb to the executive pressure and continues to maintain a cautious approach before making the much-anticipated rate cut to stimulate the domestic economy and impact the global economy.
