 Federal Reserve FOMC statement: economic growth slowed in the first half of this year.

Federal Reserve maintained interest rates unchanged on Wednesday, with a rare division in the decision-making process and no clear indication of when a rate cut might be possible. This decision was opposed by two directors appointed by Trump - Waller and Bowman, both of whom believe that the current monetary policy is too tight. This is the first time in over 30 years that two directors have voted against a decision. The FOMC voted 9-2 to keep the benchmark overnight interest rate in the 4.25%-4.50% range, maintaining the status quo for the fifth consecutive meeting. The Federal Reserve stated in its announcement: "The unemployment rate remains low, and the labor market conditions remain strong. Inflation remains slightly high." The statement also noted that economic growth "slowed somewhat" in the first half of the year, which could strengthen the case for a rate cut at a future meeting if this trend continues. However, the statement also emphasized that "uncertainty about the economic outlook remains high," and that both inflation and employment targets face risks. This wording reflects the Federal Reserve's reluctance to cut rates hastily before the path of inflation and employment becomes clearer.
