## Resource

The Fed just paused its rate hikes for the third straight time, keeping borrowing costs steady as inflation cools—hinting at possible cuts later this year if the economy holds steady. Businesses and consumers are feeling the squeeze, but the central bank’s goal remains clear: price stability without triggering a downturn. It’s a tense balancing act—and everyone’s watching the data closely. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
