Описание к видео Federal Reserve signals interest rates will stay at two-decade high until inflation further cools

The Federal Reserve emphasized that inflation has remained stubbornly high and said it doesn’t plan to cut interest rates until it has “greater confidence” that price increases are slowing sustainably to its 2% target. The Fed kept its key rate at a two-decade high of roughly 5.3%.

Several hotter-than-expected reports have recently undercut the Fed’s belief that inflation was steadily easing.

“In recent months,” Chair Jerome Powell said, “inflation has shown a lack of further progress toward our 2% objective," adding, "It is likely that gaining greater confidence will take longer than previously expected.”
