The federal funds rate target will remain at 6.5%. However, policymakers voted to change the policy-making committee’s bias towards easing, indicating that it views the risk of a sharp downturn in economic activity outweighs the risk that further inflationary pressures will continue to build. The change in the FOMC’s assessment of the risk to the economy was expected by many, and reflects the clear weakening in consumer spending, business investment growth as well as household and firm expectations in recent weeks.
