The Federal Reserve is likely to remain silent this week, with short-term rate cut forecasts in focus.

Gate News Report, March 17 — “The Fed’s mouthpiece” Nick Timiraos stated that the Federal Reserve might prefer to stay silent this week, but market forecasts are forcing the Fed to outline a policy path. Two former Fed chairs have expressed their hope to avoid making predictions about rate cuts in the near term. Whether current Fed officials will adopt the same stance has become the central focus of this meeting. Hawkish and dovish policymakers may both point to the same economic shock to justify their respective policy positions.
