Taking stock of the Trump administration’s tariff rollout, Fed officials actually marked their view of inflation this year, with an additional additional measure of the price of 2.7% at the end of the year against the 2.5% speed in December. The Fed gives inflation at 2%.
But by the end of this year, they also marked the view for economic development for this year, from 2.1% to 1.7%.
Nitimists said that the risk of the year was confused, with the nearest unanimous sense of risks.
“Uncertainty has increased around the point of view,” the Fed said in a new policy statement, “the first week of the new Trump administration and the White House officials will finally have a global tariff on imported goods. The Fed left its policy rate 4.25% -4.50% in the range.
The Fed also said that it would slow down the ongoing drawdown of its balance sheet, known as the quantitative rigid.
Fed Governor Chris V Ler Ler disagreed with a policy statement due to a change in the balance sheet policy.
Low growth, high unemployment
Prior to the meeting matched the rate estimates with the expectations set by the financial markets, and kept the Fed’s general point of view intact, slowly slowly slowing inflation would allow further monetary policy to be easier.
But it could be a rocker way to get there. Not to mention President Donald Trump or tariffs in the statement, more inflation estimates this year are consistent with the unveiling of his tariff plans.
It appeared, however, the Fed for now is looking at the price involved in the import tax, instead of a constant source of spirit pressure, they are considered as a one-change change.
Inflation under 2025 was unchanged with the Fed estimates in December, expected to return to 2% by the end of 2027.
The projection for the rate reduction of the rate ahead of this year was also unchanged, which hit 3.1% by the end of 2027, a neutral impact near the level that promotes or discourages costs and investments.
The Fed cut off its benchmark interest rate from the full percentage point last year, but has been withholding rates since December as it will wait for further evidence that inflation will continue to decrease, and recently, for further clarification of Trump’s policies.
Compared to the promise of the economic “golden age” coming by Trump, due to the pressure to impose tariffs, a large number of immigrants and OOs are forecasted to deport a growth of 1.7% this year and only 1.8% in both 2026 and 2027 and 2026 and 2027 in 2026 and 2027. 4.3%.
A press conference will be held on EDT at 2:30 pm to expand the latest policy statement and estimates of Fed Chair Jerome Powell.
