FOMC Preview: Federal Reserve Seen Cutting Rates, But With No Added Signal
Expectations are set for two things from this week’s Federal Reserve meeting: Officials will lower rates by a quarter percentage point and Chair Jerome Powell will offer little guidance as a growing divide among policymakers blurs the path ahead.
