⚡️JUST OUT: Fed leaves interest rates UNCHANGED at 3.75%–4.00%. The Fed PAUSES after September's 25-basis-point hike, despite U.S. inflation reaching 3.7%, well above its 2% target. Markets had priced in less than 10% odds of another hike today, but traders still expect HIGHER rates in December. The hold was largely priced in, limiting the potential for a surprise rally in Bitcoin and stocks. However, signals of another rate hike in December could pressure risk assets. All eyes now turn to Fed Chair Kevin Warsh for clues on the Fed's next move.
