Odaily Planet Daily reports that Chris Grisanti, Chief Market Strategist at MAI Capital Management in New York, commented on the Federal Reserve's interest rate decision: "The initial reaction was one of no surprise; rates were lowered as expected. But when you look ahead, you see a lot of uncertainty. As we move from today's rate cuts to 2026, the tailwind effect of these cuts will no longer be as reliable. This could become a problem. Further, with the Fed's revised wording emphasizing the uncertainty surrounding the 'magnitude and timing' of future rate cuts, the Fed is essentially sending a signal to the market: don't take rate cuts for granted. In my view, this means we'll only see more rate cuts if the economy slows significantly. As a stock investor, I hope there won't be any rate cuts in 2026, because that would mean the economy is weakening. I'd rather have a robust economy than more rate cuts." (Jinshi)

Odaily Planet Daily reports: Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell: Current data suggests the outlook remains unchanged, but the labor market appears to be gradually cooling down.

According to a recent article by Nick Timiraos, a well-known figure in the Federal Reserve's internal communications, the Fed has cut interest rates for the third consecutive meeting. However, unusual divisions exist within the Fed regarding whether inflation or the job market should be a greater concern, leading officials to suggest a low willingness to continue cutting rates. Recent public comments from Fed officials indicate a deep division within the committee, to the point that the final decision may depend on how Fed Chairman Jerome Powell wants to proceed. Powell's term expires next May, meaning he will only chair the next three interest rate-setting meetings. Strong price pressures coupled with a cooling labor market present the Fed with an unpleasant trade-off, a situation unseen for decades. During the so-called "stagflation" of the 1970s, when officials faced a similar dilemma, the Fed's stop-and-go approach allowed high inflation to take hold. Jonathan Pingle, chief UBS US economist, stated, "As interest rates approach neutral, with each rate cut you lose more support from participants, and you need data to incentivize those participants to join the majority in implementing rate cuts."
