The latest meeting minutes of the Federal Reserve will be released at 2:00 am Beijing time on Thursday

According to BlockBeats, on April 9th, the latest meeting minutes of the Federal Reserve will be released at 2:00 am Beijing time on Thursday. The minutes detail the discussions at the policy meeting on March 19-20, when the Fed maintained the benchmark interest rate in the range of 4.25% -4.50% and released policy signals to cut interest rates three times a year, each by 25 basis points. However, times have changed and the market landscape has undergone drastic changes. Since Trump unveiled his global tariff plan on April 2nd, the US stock market has plummeted, and several economists have warned of a possible economic recession within the year. Powell clearly turned hawkish in his speech on April 4th, warning that "we are facing a highly uncertain outlook while bearing the risk of both rising unemployment and inflation. The latest futures market data shows that traders have raised their expectations for interest rate cuts within the year to four times. Although this meeting minutes reflect policy considerations from the 'pre tariff era', it still reveals the level of consensus among the Federal Reserve's decision-makers at that time. Idanna Appio, Senior Analyst at First Eagle Global Value, pointed out that "at the March meeting, there were significant differences among decision-makers regarding their predictions for the economic outlook Market analysts will also focus on the discussion on financial stability in the minutes. Since March, the fragility of the credit market has intensified and volatility has continued to rise. If the minutes show that the Federal Reserve was alert to potential risks in the financial system at the time, investors may need to reassess its policy determination. (Golden Ten)
