Sherrod Brown (D., Ohio), who is chairman of the Senate Banking Committee and is up for re-election this fall, urged Powell to lower interest rates soon in an effort to make housing more affordable. &#34;Restrictive monetary policy is no longer the right tool for combating inflation,&#34; he wrote.</p><h2 id=\"id_1212866708\">&#39;Doing our jobs&#39;</h2><p>Fed officials insist politics won&#39;t influence their decisions. &#34;This year is going to be a highly consequential year for the Fed and for monetary policy, and we&#39;re, all of us, very buckled down and focused on doing our jobs,&#34; Powell said at a news conference Wednesday. In December, when the subject of election-year politics came up at a news conference, Powell said, &#34;The minute we start thinking about those things -- we just can&#39;t do that.&#34;</p><p>That hasn&#39;t stopped outside analysts from surmising that the election might nonetheless at least affect the timing of a cut. And political actors might have an interest in weighing in if only to remind the Fed, and each other, that it is being watched.</p><p>While Fed actions can always alter economic, and thus, political outcomes, the potential is heightened this year because of the unusual path inflation and interest rates have followed. When inflation first surged in 2021, shortly after Biden took office, the Fed thought inflation would soon subside and it was thus slow to raise interest rates from around zero. When it finally acted, it did so dramatically, raising rates at the fastest pace in four decades to their highest level in 23 years.</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/031613181fa2fd420d46a0580d025f15\" alt=\"New Hampshire residents after voting during the presidential primary in January.

Fed Chair Jerome Powell is due to hold a press conference at 2:30 p.m. EST (1930 GMT) to elaborate on the policy decision and economic outlook.</p><p>While the statement stopped short of steering investors and the public towards the timing and pace of coming rate cuts, it did mark the current policy rate as the peak of an aggressive monetary tightening cycle that began in March of 2022 when price pressures were ramping up. Inflation peaked at a 40-year high several months later.</p><p>Inflation has now been running below the Fed&#39;s target on a seven-month basis while U.S. economic growth and the job market have remained largely intact.</p><p>Economic activity &#34;has been expanding at a solid pace,&#34; the Fed said on Wednesday. Job gains &#34;remain strong, and the unemployment rate has remained low.&#34;</p><p>Fed officials did not issue new economic projections at their meeting this week.

So, let's look at the performance of the traditional cyclical sectors. The consumer discretionary sector  is down by 1.4%. The Energy sector  is down by 2.73%. The Industrials sector  is down by 1.41%, the Materials sector is down by 2.24%. These sectors closely follow the business cycle, and thus heavily depend on economic activity. Obviously, during a recession, business investment decreases which affects the industrials, energy, and materials, while the consumers cut discretionary spending. Thus, the performance of the cyclical sector is also consistent with a recession in 2024. What about tech?The technology sector  which is considered speculative, is down by 0.95%, which possibly signals some profit taking after the 50%+ performance in 2023.

That&#39;s why it is important to monitor how the year starts as that could signal how the rest of the year could develop.</p><p>This year, 2024, is particularly interesting to monitor the trading activity at the beginning of the year after the outperformance of the tech sector in 2023, given the developing monetary policy situation, the 2024 elections, and a possible recession.</p><p>So, the year started volatile. After the first six trading days, the S&amp;P 500 (SP500) (SPY) is slightly up by 0.29% However, the year started with selling, which was followed by the bounce.</p><p>When looking at the sector&#39;s performance, it appears that investors are playing very defensive. The market is led so far in 2024 by the health care sector (XLV) up by over 3%, followed by the utilities sector (XLU), up 1.78%, and consumer staples sector (XLP), up by 0.76%. These are traditionally known as the defensive sectors. Investors usually buy these defensive sectors before a recession, when the cyclical stocks drop and interest rates decrease.</p><p>Does this signal a recession in 2024? Yes, if the institutional investors are allocating to these defensive sectors at the beginning of the year, it is likely they believe that a recession is likely sometimes in 2024.</p><p>So, let&#39;s look at the performance of the traditional cyclical sectors. The consumer discretionary sector (XLY) is down by 1.4%. The Energy sector (XLE) is down by 2.73%. The Industrials sector (XLI) is down by 1.41%, the Materials sector is down by 2.24%. These sectors closely follow the business cycle, and thus heavily depend on economic activity. Obviously, during a recession, business investment decreases which affects the industrials, energy, and materials, while the consumers cut discretionary spending. Thus, the performance of the cyclical sector is also consistent with a recession in 2024.</p><p>What about tech? The technology sector (XLK) which is considered speculative, is down by 0.95%, which possibly signals some profit taking after the 50%+ performance in 2023.</p><p>What about the financials so far in 2024. The financial sector (XLF) benefits are the interest rate decrease and the yield curve dis-inverts and steepens. This usually happens in an early stage of a recession; thus, the financials are the leading sector in a new cycle. The financials are up by 0.56% so far in 2024.</p><p>Thus, it appears that investors are worried about a recession in 2024, the defensive sectors are up, while the defensive sectors are down - and this is only during the first six days of trading in 2024. Here is the chart:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4672c21611f9ffd72426db818dcb3ee7\" alt=\"SPDRSectors\" title=\"SPDRSectors\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"485\"/><span>SPDRSectors</span></p><h2 id=\"id_3303880943\">But it&#39;s not as bad as it looks</h2><p>So, definitely, we are getting a worrisome outlook from the beginning of the year&#39;s trading activity. But, let&#39;s look at the performance of some of the key stocks to get more insights.</p><p>When we look at the performance of the Discretionary sector, we see that Tesla (TSLA) down by 5.85%. Given the size of Tesla, this has a significant effect on S&amp;P 500. It is hard to say that Tesla is down by 5%+ due to cyclical reasons, it has to do more with the shaky demand for EV, so I view this more as a firm-specific issue, rather than a systematic issue.</p><p>Further, when you look at the Industrials, Boeing (BA) is down by 12.59% YTD, and this has to do with the firm-specific issues, primarily the issues with the Boeing Max 9 plane. Given the market cap of Boeing and its high price, it affects significantly the price-weighted Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI), as well as the overall industrial sector. Thus, I would not view the performance of Boeing as a systematic issue with recessionary implications.</p><p>Materials are also down, but led to the downside by Newmont (NEM), down by 8.31%, and this has to do more with the speculation in Gold and Silver, than systematic issues. Yes, we know that China is in crisis, which affects the demand for commodities, and thus the Materials sector, but this does not signal a US recession. Similarly, energy is also down, but this has to do more with speculation in crude oil given the geopolitical situation.</p><p>Yes, defensive sectors are up, but there are some key firm-specific issues that have been driving the performance of big stocks in these sectors to cloud the overall implications with respect to a recession in 2024.</p><h2 id=\"id_3194138572\">What about the Magnificent 7?</h2><p>The S&amp;P 500 has been led by the Magnificent 7 in 2023, and many expected some profit taking at the beginning of 2024, given the uncertain macro environment.</p><p>The Technology sector is down, but it has been significantly affected by Apple (AAPL) down by 3.29%, which was downgraded due to firm-specific reasons, which also does not have macro implications. Tesla is in a similar situation, as previously discussed.</p><p>But Nvidia (NVDA) is up by 9.75%, extending the 2023 magic run. Microsoft (MSFT) up by 1.79%. This signals that investors are still &#34;chasing&#34; the AI theme, which is not consistent with a defensive risk-off behavior. Similarly, Meta (META) up 4.66%, Alphabet is up by 2.04%, and Amazon up 1.18%.</p><p>Thus, investors are still allocating to the Magnificent 7, and any possible dip is quickly bought. This has positive macro implications, and positive implications for the broader market.</p><h2 id=\"id_4275475719\">Implications</h2><p>Based on the sector performance during the first days of 2024, it appears that investors are concerned about a recession, given the relative performance of defensive and cyclical sectors.</p><p>However, after further looking at the performance of the key stocks, it appears that some of the performance is due to firm-specific risk, and has no macro implications. I would focus more on the positive performance of big tech, as this shows that investors still have a risk appetite. Thus, my recommendation is still a BUY for S&amp;P 500.</p><p>This is consistent with the outlook that the Fed thinks that a recession is not necessary for inflation to return to the 2% target, and, thus, it is willing to cut interest rates.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The company maintains that this decision is a sign of solidarity with Israel amidst its ongoing conflict with Hamas.What Happened: The Denver-based firm asserted its support for Israel. Palantir has had a presence in Israel for the past decade, running an office in Tel Aviv managed by former government officials from the country, reported The Times of Israel on Tuesday.The Peter Thiel-cofounded company also expressed its support of Israel on X, formerly Twitter.The company’s software, powered by artificial intelligence, assists in detecting crimes such as human trafficking and intricate financial fraud. It is also utilized by public health bodies for tracking the spread of lethal diseases and by military defense forces.Palantir has openly expressed its support for Israel in the past, notably during the war that erupted between Israel and Hamas on October 7. The company’s CEO, Alex Karp, criticized corporate America in December for not standing up for Israel after the October 7 atrocities.Why It Matters: Palantir’s stance on the Israel-Hamas conflict has been clear for a while. In November, co-founder Joe Lonsdale discussed the company’s role in aiding Israel during the war with Hamas, emphasizing the importance of keeping the “good guys armed and ahead.”The firm’s overt support for Israel has also sparked controversy. In December, activists from Healthcare Workers for Palestine blocked Palantir’s UK office in protest of the company’s access to patient data and its unyielding support for Israel, as reported by Benzinga. This incident underlines the potential challenges that businesses might face when taking a public stance on geopolitical issues.Price Action: On Tuesday, Palantir shares closed 3.44% lower at $16.58 in the regular session and fell another 0.3% in the after-hours trading.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":79,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":236693497372760,"gmtCreate":1698822050275,"gmtModify":1698824659255,"author":{"id":"4158999173643292","authorId":"4158999173643292","name":"N9ne","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"I chose Toyota because they have the best 4 wheel drives&nbsp;","listText":"I chose Toyota because they have the best 4 wheel drives&nbsp;","text":"I chose Toyota because they have the best 4 wheel drives","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/236693497372760","repostId":"2380362736","repostType":2,"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":100,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":236584124104824,"gmtCreate":1698795349556,"gmtModify":1698804010170,"author":{"id":"4158999173643292","authorId":"4158999173643292","name":"N9ne","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Don't know what I'm doing just having a tutu","listText":"Don't know what I'm doing just having a tutu","text":"Don't know what I'm doing just having a tutu","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/236584124104824","isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":66,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0}],"hots":[{"id":263329279533104,"gmtCreate":1705324034831,"gmtModify":1705326833485,"author":{"id":"4158999173643292","authorId":"4158999173643292","name":"N9ne","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"It looks bad considering you can make alot of money from war if that's what you want to benefit from&nbsp;","listText":"It looks bad considering you can make alot of money from war if that's what you want to benefit from&nbsp;","text":"It looks bad considering you can make alot of money from war if that's what you want to benefit from","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":6,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/263329279533104","repostId":"2402211750","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"2402211750","pubTimestamp":1705323600,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/2402211750?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2024-01-15 21:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"S&P 500: Cautionary Start For 2024, But It's Not As Bad As It Looks","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=2402211750","media":"Seeking Alpha","summary":"Yes, if the institutional investors are allocating to these defensive sectors at the beginning of the year, it is likely they believe that a recession is likely sometimes in 2024. So, let's look at the performance of the traditional cyclical sectors. The consumer discretionary sector  is down by 1.4%. The Energy sector  is down by 2.73%. The Industrials sector  is down by 1.41%, the Materials sector is down by 2.24%. These sectors closely follow the business cycle, and thus heavily depend on economic activity. Obviously, during a recession, business investment decreases which affects the industrials, energy, and materials, while the consumers cut discretionary spending. Thus, the performance of the cyclical sector is also consistent with a recession in 2024. What about tech?The technology sector  which is considered speculative, is down by 0.95%, which possibly signals some profit taking after the 50%+ performance in 2023.

For example, for tax reasons, or even to maximize their annual bonuses. That&#39;s why it is important to monitor how the year starts as that could signal how the rest of the year could develop.</p><p>This year, 2024, is particularly interesting to monitor the trading activity at the beginning of the year after the outperformance of the tech sector in 2023, given the developing monetary policy situation, the 2024 elections, and a possible recession.</p><p>So, the year started volatile. After the first six trading days, the S&amp;P 500 (SP500) (SPY) is slightly up by 0.29% However, the year started with selling, which was followed by the bounce.</p><p>When looking at the sector&#39;s performance, it appears that investors are playing very defensive. The market is led so far in 2024 by the health care sector (XLV) up by over 3%, followed by the utilities sector (XLU), up 1.78%, and consumer staples sector (XLP), up by 0.76%. These are traditionally known as the defensive sectors. Investors usually buy these defensive sectors before a recession, when the cyclical stocks drop and interest rates decrease.</p><p>Does this signal a recession in 2024? Yes, if the institutional investors are allocating to these defensive sectors at the beginning of the year, it is likely they believe that a recession is likely sometimes in 2024.</p><p>So, let&#39;s look at the performance of the traditional cyclical sectors. The consumer discretionary sector (XLY) is down by 1.4%. The Energy sector (XLE) is down by 2.73%. The Industrials sector (XLI) is down by 1.41%, the Materials sector is down by 2.24%. These sectors closely follow the business cycle, and thus heavily depend on economic activity.

The financial sector (XLF) benefits are the interest rate decrease and the yield curve dis-inverts and steepens. This usually happens in an early stage of a recession; thus, the financials are the leading sector in a new cycle. The financials are up by 0.56% so far in 2024.</p><p>Thus, it appears that investors are worried about a recession in 2024, the defensive sectors are up, while the defensive sectors are down - and this is only during the first six days of trading in 2024. Here is the chart:</p><p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/4672c21611f9ffd72426db818dcb3ee7\" alt=\"SPDRSectors\" title=\"SPDRSectors\" tg-width=\"640\" tg-height=\"485\"/><span>SPDRSectors</span></p><h2 id=\"id_3303880943\">But it&#39;s not as bad as it looks</h2><p>So, definitely, we are getting a worrisome outlook from the beginning of the year&#39;s trading activity. But, let&#39;s look at the performance of some of the key stocks to get more insights.</p><p>When we look at the performance of the Discretionary sector, we see that Tesla (TSLA) down by 5.85%. Given the size of Tesla, this has a significant effect on S&amp;P 500. It is hard to say that Tesla is down by 5%+ due to cyclical reasons, it has to do more with the shaky demand for EV, so I view this more as a firm-specific issue, rather than a systematic issue.</p><p>Further, when you look at the Industrials, Boeing (BA) is down by 12.59% YTD, and this has to do with the firm-specific issues, primarily the issues with the Boeing Max 9 plane. Given the market cap of Boeing and its high price, it affects significantly the price-weighted Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI), as well as the overall industrial sector. Thus, I would not view the performance of Boeing as a systematic issue with recessionary implications.</p><p>Materials are also down, but led to the downside by Newmont (NEM), down by 8.31%, and this has to do more with the speculation in Gold and Silver, than systematic issues. Yes, we know that China is in crisis, which affects the demand for commodities, and thus the Materials sector, but this does not signal a US recession. Similarly, energy is also down, but this has to do more with speculation in crude oil given the geopolitical situation.</p><p>Yes, defensive sectors are up, but there are some key firm-specific issues that have been driving the performance of big stocks in these sectors to cloud the overall implications with respect to a recession in 2024.</p><h2 id=\"id_3194138572\">What about the Magnificent 7?</h2><p>The S&amp;P 500 has been led by the Magnificent 7 in 2023, and many expected some profit taking at the beginning of 2024, given the uncertain macro environment.</p><p>The Technology sector is down, but it has been significantly affected by Apple (AAPL) down by 3.29%, which was downgraded due to firm-specific reasons, which also does not have macro implications. Tesla is in a similar situation, as previously discussed.</p><p>But Nvidia (NVDA) is up by 9.75%, extending the 2023 magic run. Microsoft (MSFT) up by 1.79%. This signals that investors are still &#34;chasing&#34; the AI theme, which is not consistent with a defensive risk-off behavior. Similarly, Meta (META) up 4.66%, Alphabet is up by 2.04%, and Amazon up 1.18%.</p><p>Thus, investors are still allocating to the Magnificent 7, and any possible dip is quickly bought. This has positive macro implications, and positive implications for the broader market.</p><h2 id=\"id_4275475719\">Implications</h2><p>Based on the sector performance during the first days of 2024, it appears that investors are concerned about a recession, given the relative performance of defensive and cyclical sectors.</p><p>However, after further looking at the performance of the key stocks, it appears that some of the performance is due to firm-specific risk, and has no macro implications. I would focus more on the positive performance of big tech, as this shows that investors still have a risk appetite. Thus, my recommendation is still a BUY for S&amp;P 500.</p><p>This is consistent with the outlook that the Fed thinks that a recession is not necessary for inflation to return to the 2% target, and, thus, it is willing to cut interest rates.</p></body></html>","source":"seekingalpha","collect":0,"html":"<!DOCTYPE html>\n<html>\n<head>\n<meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" content=\"text/html;

The consumer discretionary sector (XLY) is down by 1.4%. The Energy sector (XLE) is down by 2.73%. The Industrials sector (XLI) is down by 1.41%, the Materials sector is down by 2.24%. These sectors closely follow the business cycle, and thus heavily depend on economic activity. Obviously, during a recession, business investment decreases which affects the industrials, energy, and materials, while the consumers cut discretionary spending. Thus, the performance of the cyclical sector is also consistent with a recession in 2024.What about tech? The technology sector (XLK) which is considered speculative, is down by 0.95%, which possibly signals some profit taking after the 50%+ performance in 2023.What about the financials so far in 2024. The financial sector (XLF) benefits are the interest rate decrease and the yield curve dis-inverts and steepens. This usually happens in an early stage of a recession; thus, the financials are the leading sector in a new cycle. The financials are up by 0.56% so far in 2024.Thus, it appears that investors are worried about a recession in 2024, the defensive sectors are up, while the defensive sectors are down - and this is only during the first six days of trading in 2024. Here is the chart:SPDRSectorsBut it's not as bad as it looksSo, definitely, we are getting a worrisome outlook from the beginning of the year's trading activity. But, let's look at the performance of some of the key stocks to get more insights.When we look at the performance of the Discretionary sector, we see that Tesla (TSLA) down by 5.85%. Given the size of Tesla, this has a significant effect on S&P 500. It is hard to say that Tesla is down by 5%+ due to cyclical reasons, it has to do more with the shaky demand for EV, so I view this more as a firm-specific issue, rather than a systematic issue.Further, when you look at the Industrials, Boeing (BA) is down by 12.59% YTD, and this has to do with the firm-specific issues, primarily the issues with the Boeing Max 9 plane. Given the market cap of Boeing and its high price, it affects significantly the price-weighted Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJI), as well as the overall industrial sector. Thus, I would not view the performance of Boeing as a systematic issue with recessionary implications.Materials are also down, but led to the downside by Newmont (NEM), down by 8.31%, and this has to do more with the speculation in Gold and Silver, than systematic issues. Yes, we know that China is in crisis, which affects the demand for commodities, and thus the Materials sector, but this does not signal a US recession. Similarly, energy is also down, but this has to do more with speculation in crude oil given the geopolitical situation.Yes, defensive sectors are up, but there are some key firm-specific issues that have been driving the performance of big stocks in these sectors to cloud the overall implications with respect to a recession in 2024.What about the Magnificent 7?The S&P 500 has been led by the Magnificent 7 in 2023, and many expected some profit taking at the beginning of 2024, given the uncertain macro environment.The Technology sector is down, but it has been significantly affected by Apple (AAPL) down by 3.29%, which was downgraded due to firm-specific reasons, which also does not have macro implications. Tesla is in a similar situation, as previously discussed.But Nvidia (NVDA) is up by 9.75%, extending the 2023 magic run. Microsoft (MSFT) up by 1.79%. This signals that investors are still \"chasing\" the AI theme, which is not consistent with a defensive risk-off behavior. Similarly, Meta (META) up 4.66%, Alphabet is up by 2.04%, and Amazon up 1.18%.Thus, investors are still allocating to the Magnificent 7, and any possible dip is quickly bought. This has positive macro implications, and positive implications for the broader market.ImplicationsBased on the sector performance during the first days of 2024, it appears that investors are concerned about a recession, given the relative performance of defensive and cyclical sectors.However, after further looking at the performance of the key stocks, it appears that some of the performance is due to firm-specific risk, and has no macro implications. I would focus more on the positive performance of big tech, as this shows that investors still have a risk appetite. Thus, my recommendation is still a BUY for S&P 500.This is consistent with the outlook that the Fed thinks that a recession is not necessary for inflation to return to the 2% target, and, thus, it is willing to cut interest rates.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":69,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":269083120980216,"gmtCreate":1706728787407,"gmtModify":1706736686862,"author":{"id":"4158999173643292","authorId":"4158999173643292","name":"N9ne","avatar":"https://community-static.tradeup.com/news/default-avatar.jpg","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Need to remove this monetary system&nbsp;&nbsp; it's&nbsp;been in the control of greedy fraudulent terrorists called Jewmerica&nbsp;","listText":"Need to remove this monetary system&nbsp;&nbsp; it's&nbsp;been in the control of greedy fraudulent terrorists called Jewmerica&nbsp;","text":"Need to remove this monetary system it's been in the control of greedy fraudulent terrorists called Jewmerica","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/269083120980216","repostId":"1128918790","repostType":2,"repost":{"id":"1128918790","weMediaInfo":{"introduction":"Reuters.com brings you the latest news from around the world, covering breaking news in markets, business, politics, entertainment and technology","home_visible":1,"media_name":"Reuters","id":"1036604489","head_image":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/443ce19704621c837795676028cec868"},"pubTimestamp":1706727600,"share":"https://www.laohu8.com/m/news/1128918790?lang=&edition=full","pubTime":"2024-02-01 03:00","market":"us","language":"en","title":"Fed Holds Rates Steady, Says More \"Confidence\" Needed in Inflation Slowdown Before Cuts","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1128918790","media":"Reuters","summary":"WASHINGTON, Jan 31 (Reuters) - The Federal Reserve left interest rates unchanged on Wednesday but took a major step towards lowering them in coming months in a policy statement that tempered inflation","content":"<html><head></head><body><p>WASHINGTON, Jan 31 (Reuters) - The Federal Reserve left interest rates unchanged on Wednesday but took a major step towards lowering them in coming months in a policy statement that tempered inflation concerns with other risks to the economy and dropped a longstanding reference to possible further hikes in borrowing costs.</p><p>The U.S. central bank&#39;s latest policy statement gave no hint that a rate cut was imminent, and indeed said the policy-setting Federal Open Market Committee &#34;does not expect it will be appropriate to reduce the target range until it has gained greater confidence that inflation is moving sustainably toward 2%,&#34; the Fed&#39;s inflation target.</p><p>&#34;Inflation has eased over the past year, but remains elevated,&#34; the Fed said in the statement after a two-day meeting, restating that officials &#34;remain highly attentive to inflation risks.&#34;</p><p>The language will be a blow to investors who have been expecting rate cuts to start as early as March.</p><p>But the Fed also nodded to concerns about the employment side of its mission as well, and opened the door to lowering the policy rate if inflation, as expected, continues drifting lower in coming months.</p><p>The risks to meeting both the employment and inflation goals &#34;are moving into better balance,&#34; the Fed said, ending roughly two years in which the central bank&#39;s bias has been to moving rates higher and the risks seen as tilted towards those posed by escalating prices.</p><p>&#34;In considering any adjustments to the target range for the federal funds rate, the Committee will carefully assess incoming data, the evolving outlook, and the balance of risks,&#34; the FOMC said.</p><p>The Fed&#39;s prior statement, issued on Dec. 13, had laid out the conditions under which it would consider &#34;any additional policy firming,&#34; language that excluded any consideration of rate cuts.</p><h2 id=\"id_1669737190\" style=\"text-align: start;\">NO STEER FOR INVESTORS</h2><p>The latest statement, which left the Fed&#39;s benchmark overnight interest rate in the 5.25%-5.50% range, was approved unanimously.
