Fitch Ratings predicts the US Federal Reserve will continue modest rate cuts, despite a larger-than-expected 50-bps reduction.
The federal funds rate is expected to reach 4.5 per cent by year-end, and 3.0 per cent by mid-2026.
Rising unemployment and a focus on maximum employment, alongside stable inflation, are influencing the Fed’s cautious approach to further cuts through 2025.
