đ¨ FED DECISION JUST DROPPED (4/29/2026)
⢠Rates unchanged at 3.50%â3.75% for the 3rd straight meeting
⢠4 dissents â highest since 1992 (deeply divided Fed)
⢠3 members opposed the âeasing biasâ in the statement
⢠Highlights Middle East tensions and rising energy prices as key uncertainty
⢠Inflation language upgraded: now âis elevatedâ (was âsomewhat elevatedâ)
Bottom line: The Fed is staying cautious. Geopolitical risks + sticky inflation = no rush to cut rates.
Crypto markets will be watching closely â higher-for-longer rates + energy shock could keep pressure on risk assets in the short term.
Whatâs your take? Bullish on the eventual cuts or bearish on the near-term uncertainty? đ
