$ETH 🌈🔥【Federal Reserve Cuts Interest Rates Again, Signals Economic Slowdown】

📈On the 10th local time, the U.S. Federal Reserve announced a reduction of the federal funds rate target range by 25 basis points to 3.50%-3.75%. This marks the sixth consecutive rate cut by the Federal Reserve since 2023.

🏦In its policy statement, the Federal Reserve noted that while current U.S. economic activity remains moderately expanding, key areas are showing signs of fatigue: employment growth has slowed, the unemployment rate has slightly increased, and inflation levels remain high. The statement particularly emphasized that "the uncertainty surrounding the economic outlook remains high," and that "the downside risks to employment have increased recently." This assessment has become the core basis for this rate cut decision, reflecting the Fed's heightened concerns about weakening economic momentum and cooling labor market.

🌟Previously, there were internal disagreements within the Federal Reserve regarding the impact of tariff policies and whether to continue cutting rates in December, but the recent deterioration in employment data ultimately unified the inclination towards easing, raising expectations for this rate cut. Former President Trump commented that the rate cut "could be larger," reflecting the views of some market and political forces that desire a more aggressive monetary policy to stimulate the economy.

🧣The continuous rate cut cycle indicates that the Federal Reserve is trying to seek a balance between curbing inflation and preventing economic decline in response to increasing uncertainty. The future path of monetary policy will closely depend on inflation trends and the performance of the job market. #美联储FOMC会议
