What was said around it
went 15 months without a single change or basically at this meeting it's clear that the most likely scenario is that there's no change is being made whatsoever until inflation begins to subside which hopefully is at the end of the year and if it doesn't or conditions worsen there's always the chance of another rate hike I know it's not the ideal scenario but the Federal Reserve is going to remain data dependent and they'll do whatever it takes to bring inflation down without completely crippling the economy however long term it's currently anticipated the Federal Reserve may end up stabilizing rates around the 4% range which is currently only 1.25% lower than it is today and that's mostly boosted up by a very strong economy strong labor market and a stock market that doesn't seem to care that much that rates are this high so as far as what I have to say about everything I think it's a bit of a mess on the one hand GDP recently slowed down to a 1.6% annualized rate which was much lower than expected and that's not a surprise given how two out of three Americans are more worried about running out of money than they are dying which is absurd of course in terms of why these numbers came
