Federal Reserve Likely to Maintain Interest Rates Amid Soft Inflation Data

Reported 1 day ago

Despite a recent dip in inflation rates, the Federal Reserve is expected to keep interest rates steady due to concerns that tariffs could lead to higher prices in the future. The core Personal Consumption Expenditures index showed a slight increase in April, but Fed officials remain uncertain about the long-term impact of tariff-related price changes. While some members argue these effects may turn out to be temporary, others believe they could persist, leading to a complicated outlook for monetary policy.
