🚨 FED STORM ALERT 🇺🇸
All eyes are on the Dec 9–10 FOMC meeting. Markets expect a 25 bps rate cut — the 3rd of 2025 — but the real risk is everything around it.
🔥 Government shutdown delaying key data
🔥 Hiring slowing, layoffs rising
🔥 Inflation still above 2% from tariff pressure
🔥 Fed officials split on what comes next
🔥 Political pressure on Powell ahead of his 2026 exit
The White House is already eyeing Powell’s successor, reviving concerns over Fed independence.
📌 This meeting isn’t about 25 bps — it’s about credibility, guidance, and control.
