Is the Fed Reassessing? October Economic Briefing
CHAPEL HILL, NC (October 7, 2024) – After cutting interest rates by half a percentage point and providing guidance that another half point is likely, the Federal Reserve was greeted with an unexpectedly strong employment report for September. How will the data affect the prospect of future cuts?
