Federal Reserve officials delivered a third consecutive interest-rate reduction and maintained their outlook for just one cut in 2026.

The Federal Open Market Committee voted 9-3 Wednesday to lower the benchmark federal funds rate by a quarter point to a range of 3.5%-3.75%. It also subtly altered the wording of its statement suggesting greater uncertainty about when it might cut rates again.

Speaking to reporters after the meeting, Chair Jerome Powell suggested the Fed had now done enough to bolster the threat to employment while leaving rates high enough to continue weighing on price pressures.

When asked if it were a foregone conclusion that the Fed’s next move would be a cut, Powell demurred, but added that he didn’t see a rate hike as any official’s base case.
