Key takeaways

  • The Federal Reserve (Fed) left rates unchanged, despite two dissenters favoring a 25 basis point hike, as policymakers wait for additional data before making their next move.

  • The Fed upgraded its view of the economy from "solid" to "strong," reflecting continued resilience in the economy and labor market even as inflation remains elevated.

  • December remains in focus for a potential rate hike, but the path beyond is less certain and will likely depend on incoming inflation, growth, and financial conditions data.
