US Fed to unveil first interest rate decision for 2025 on Jan 29: Will Donald Trump’s remarks impact FOMC policy?
Live MintThe US Federal Reserve will unveil its first monetary policy decision for 2025 on Wednesday, January 29. Regarding the current US Fed interest rates, Trump has said that he seeks to lower them by unleashing energy production and would speak to the US Federal Reserve if needed. How Donald Trump's remarks weigh on US Fed policy The US Federal Reserve has a dual mandate to act independently and keep inflation and employment in check, primarily by raising and lowering short-term interest rates. At a White House event following Davos, Trump said, "I think I know interest rates much better than they do, and I think I know it certainly much better than the one who's primarily in charge of making that decision," in an apparent reference to US Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell. While US inflation has "eased significantly," the level remains "somewhat elevated" compared to the US Fed's long-term target of two per cent, said US Fed Chair Jerome Powell in the post-policy press conference.
