The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) decided to keep interest rates steady at 4.25% to 4.50% during its March 2025 meeting. This decision provides stability in the current monetary policy.
The committee also indicated the possibility of two more rate cuts later in the year, citing growing uncertainty around the economy. This forward guidance offers a potential tailwind for interest-rate sensitive sectors.
