Summary
The Fed holds steady on rates for now, keeping borrowing costs high as inflation remains stubbornly above target. With three consecutive pauses and no immediate cuts in sight, the central bank is watching closely — ready to act if needed.

Patience is key — but don’t expect a soft landing anytime soon. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
