🚨 POWELL CONFIRMS IT: TIGHTENING CYCLE IS OVER! 🚨
The Fed is DONE hiking rates. The question is now WHEN the cuts start, not IF they hike again. Powell explicitly stated a rate hike is NOT the base case. This is massive for risk assets.
• Rates held at 3.5%–3.75%.
• Inflation spike linked primarily to tariffs, not demand.
• Core PCE without tariffs is near 2%.
• Expect easing policy as tariff effects fade later this year.
The market shifts from restriction to stabilization. Get ready for the easing cycle countdown.
