Description

The Federal Reserve is poised to cut its key interest rate, but the real focus is on Chair Jerome Powells signals for future steps. The Fed faces challenges due to a lack of recent economic data and an upcoming chair nomination by President Trump. The rate-setting committee is divided, with some supporting rate cuts to boost hiring and others preferring to keep rates steady to control inflation. The Fed will release its quarterly economic projections this week, but these might carry less weight given the likelihood of a new chair who could push for more cuts.
