The Fed raised the fed funds target range by 25bps to 3.75%–4.00% in a unanimous 12–0 vote, citing solid economic activity and still-elevated inflation.

StocksBNB Phillip Macro Update – Fed tightens as inflation pressures persistKey points to note:1. Rate hike aims to prevent broader inflation pressures. The Fed acknowledged that monetary policy cannot directly lower oil or food prices. Instead, the hike aims to prevent these cost pressure from feeding into broader inflation through second- and third-order effects. 2. Stronger economy gives the Fed more room to focus on inflation. The September SEP points to a more resilient economy. 2026 GDP growth was revised to 2.3% from 2.2%, while unemployment was revised down to 4.1% from 4.3%. 3. Higher Treasury yields have yet to translate into broader economic restraint. Despite the rise in Treasury yields, Warsh said broad financial conditions remain difficult to describe as restrictive.

The case for a hike rests on the risk that renewed energy pressures prolong inflation persistence.
