Description

Uncertainty looms as the Federal Reserve weighs a December interest rate cut, with key economic data missing due to the ongoing government shutdown. While most Fed officials, including Chair Jerome Powell, lean towards at least three rate cuts this year, a cautious group argues for a slower approach. The split between these two camps could intensify if the shutdown continues, potentially leading to dissent within the Fed. As the December meeting approaches, all eyes are on the Federal Reserve, with the outcome likely to be influenced by both the shutdown's resolution and late economic data.
