#美联储FOMC会议 #The Federal Reserve FOMC meeting has concluded! The year-end "interest rate drama" hides these wealth secrets✨
The Federal Reserve FOMC meeting, which global investors stayed up for, has come to an end. Although it was not unexpected to lower the interest rate by 25 basis points for the third consecutive time, the internal divisions and unexpected signals made the market boil instantly! Out of 12 members, 3 votes opposed and 4 votes were "soft opposition". Some strongly supported a 50 basis point cut, while others insisted on holding steady. This "hawk-dove battle" can be considered an annual highlight～
Powell released key signals at the press conference: clearly stating that "the next step is not to raise interest rates", repeatedly emphasizing the downward risk in the job market, and even rarely raising the GDP forecast for 2026 and lowering inflation predictions, sketching an ideal picture of "steady growth and falling inflation". Even more surprising is the Federal Reserve's sudden announcement to start "light balance sheet expansion" on December 12, buying $40 billion in short-term government bonds each month to inject "liquid water" into the market!
For ordinary people like us, these signals directly affect our wallets: the US dollar is likely to weaken, the RMB may continue to appreciate, and the costs of studying abroad and online shopping may decrease; the A-shares are expected to welcome inflows of overseas funds, with valuations supported; during the rate-cutting cycle, gold remains a noteworthy allocation direction. However, it is important to note that the room for interest rate cuts in 2026 is limited and may present a "hawkish then dovish" rhythm, so investment should be cautiously arranged～
Although this meeting, which affected global capital, has ended, subsequent economic data and policy trends are still full of highlights. How do you think rate cuts will affect your asset allocation? Come and discuss in the comments～
