Inflation has risen again to 'elevated', with energy prices taking the blame, and the Middle East powder keg ignites, gold worth ten thousand taels.
The Federal Reserve kept rates unchanged at 3.50–3.75%, giving no signal on timing of cuts and citing high uncertainty tied to Middle East tensions.
Key points:
🔸Economy still growing at a solid pace
🔸Job gains modest; unemployment stable
🔸Inflation now labeled “elevated” (up from “somewhat elevated”), driven by energy prices
🔸Fed watching risks to both growth and inflation
The decision passed 8–4, the most dissent since 1992:
🔸One member favored a rate cut
🔸Three opposed any easing bias
Bottom line: policy on hold, outlook uncertain, divisions rising inside the Fed.
