The Federal Reserve's December meeting faces a difficult decision, with the probability of interest rate cuts being quite equal

According to Jinshi News, FP Markets Chief Market Analyst Aaron Hill stated in a report that the recent government shutdown has led to a lack of official data, posing a difficult challenge for the Federal Reserve's December policy meeting. There are divisions within the Federal Reserve and a cautious stance is maintained; although some officials support a rate cut, "meaningful hawkish repricing has occurred." LSEG data shows that the current probabilities of a rate cut and maintaining the interest rate are roughly equal.
