According to the Securities Times APP, the Federal Reserve announced on Wednesday that it will once again cut the federal funds rate by 25 basis points, marking the third rate cut this year. Despite meeting market expectations for a "hawkish rate cut," this meeting saw the most serious internal divergence of opinions since 2019. Coupled with a noticeably retreating policy statement, the market generally believes that the future room for rate cuts is narrowing, and the Federal Reserve may enter a new "wait-and-see period."
