Jerome Powell LIVE: Federal Reserve Expected To Hold Interest Rates Steady Amid Iran War | US Stock Market LIVE | FOMC Meeting | CNBC TV18
U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell holds a news conference after a two-day policy meeting. The Fed is likely to hold rates steady with volatile oil prices and poor US jobs performance. For Wednesday’s decision, Chair Jerome Powell and his colleagues have to wrestle with the Iran war, fears of an inflation spike and mixed signals from the labor market. The combination of factors all but assures the Fed will stand pat, keeping its key interest rate targeted between 3.5% to 3.75%. Updates to economic and rate projections also aren’t expected to show major changes.
“The decision itself is almost guaranteed — a rate hold at the March meeting. But any hints Chair Powell might drop about the path of future interest rates will be key,” said BeiChen Lin, senior investment strategist at Russell Investments. “Broadly speaking, the U.S. economy is still on solid footing. This means however that the bar for further rate cuts in the U.S. may be quite elevated.”
The recent spike in oil prices, driven by the Middle East conflict, has complicated the Fed's picture, as inflation remains above the central bank's 2% target and the labor market slows.
Traders now expect the Fed won't cut rates until October or December, and the central bank is widely expected to hold rates steady in the 3.5%-3.75% range on Wednesday.
