The Fed decision: Insights from the GAA team – Ilan Kolet

Описание: With questions still not answered about the course of inflation in the United States, the Federal Reserve chose this week to keep rates on hold. Chairman Jerome Powell says he is comfortable enough with the economic growth and labour story to stick with his policy of no-sudden-movements. However, with a potential bite from tariffs still to come and a labour market showing continuing jobless claims at steady levels, how long can this rate position grind on for? And, how does the interest rate differential, globally, leave Canadians who are investors of the loonie? We are pleased today to be hearing the perspective of Fidelity’s Global Asset Allocation team with Institutional Portfolio Manager, Ilan Kolet.

Certain statements in this commentary may contain forward-looking statements ("FLS") that are predictive in nature and may include words such as "expects", "anticipates", "intends", "plans", "believes", "estimates" and similar forward-looking expressions or negative versions thereof. FLS are based on current expectations and projections about future general economic, political and relevant market factors, such as interest and foreign exchange rates, equity and capital markets, and the general business environment, in each case assuming no changes to applicable tax or other laws or government regulation. Expectations and projections about future events are inherently subject to, among other things, risks and uncertainties, some of which may be unforeseeable and, accordingly, may prove to be incorrect at a future date. FLS are not guarantees of future performance, and actual events could differ materially from those expressed or implied in any FLS. A number of important factors can contribute to these digressions, including, but not limited to, general economic, political and market factors in North America and internationally, interest and foreign exchange rates, global equity and capital markets, business competition and catastrophic events. You should avoid placing any undue reliance on FLS. Further, there is no specific intention of updating any FLS whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
