In its most recent meeting, the Federal Reserve Board decided to increase interest rates by another quarter of a percentage point. At this meeting, the Fed implemented its smallest interest rate rise since March 2022, signaling a moderation in the pace of its rapid tightening throughout 2022.
As the Fed continues to be vigilant about inflation, it was widely anticipated that Chairman Jerome Powell will delay raises at the meeting. The fact that this rise is less than previous ones is a welcome improvement.
The Federal Reserve has increased interest rates by another quarter of a percentage point, after a half-point increase in December. The decision is the Fed’s weakest rise in a year, signaling a slowdown in their fight against inflation.
