Federal Reserve

President Donald Trump blasted the Federal Reserve and Chair Jerome Powell on social media Wednesday for pausing rates cuts against the president's wishes.

The Federal Reserve held interest rates steady at its January meeting following three consecutive rate cuts amid uncertainty over inflation and economic conditions.

The Federal Reserve is set to announce its first interest rate decision of 2025 and with a pause expected, it could prompt President Donald Trump to renew his criticism of the central bank.

The U.S. economy is on solid footing, according to a new survey from the nation’s leading economists, who are also keeping a close eye President Trump's incoming policies.

The Federal Reserve announced that it has withdrawn from the Network of Central Banks and Supervisors for Greening the Financial System, which incorporated climate risk into financial rules.

Higher December inflation could make the case for a pause in interest rate cuts.

The Labor Department released the inflation report for December, which showed prices were up 2.9% from a year ago, in line with economists expectations and up from 2.7% in November.

The producer price index for final demand rose 0.2% last month after an unrevised 0.4% advance in November, the Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics said on Tuesday.

The Labor Department released its jobs report for December, which showed the U.S. economy added 256,000 jobs last month, well above economists' expectations.

Minutes from the most recent meeting of Federal Reserve policymakers showed uncertainty about the impact of President-elect Trump's immigration and tariff policies on inflation.

The Fed's preferred inflation measure for November, the PCE index, came in below Wall Street estimates. However, it remains above where policymakers want it to be suggesting prices are still stubbornly high.

The Federal Reserve's policymakers announced that they will cut the benchmark federal funds rate by a quarter point in December, marking the central bank's third straight cut.

The market sees the probability of another 25 basis point interest rate cut at next week's Federal Reserve meeting as rising despite inflation ticking higher in November.

President-elect Trump's pick for Treasury secretary, Scott Bessent, has said Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell will be allowed to finish his term.

The Labor Department released new inflation data for November, which showed that prices were up 2.7% from a year ago as the Federal Reserve weighs another interest rate cut.

President-elect Trump said in an interview that he won't try to fire Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell despite his past criticism of Powell and the leadership of the central bank.

The Labor Department on Friday released the much-anticipated November jobs report, which showed the economy added 227,000 jobs while the unemployment rate ticked up.

The Fed doesn't have a Trump tariff forecast ready as the central bank doesn't "think in hypotheticals," says San Fran president Mary Daly, but it "doesn't usually derail growth."

Stock investors have a lot to be thankful for this year as the Dow Jones Industrial Average notches another new record as the post-election celebration continues.

The Commerce Department released data showing that PCE inflation ticked higher in October, though the Federal Reserve's preferred inflation gauge remained near last month's level.
