Fed FOMC Meeting June 2026 - My Take

PensionCraft Podcast 1 months ago

Description

The geopolitical backdrop has shifted sharply since the last meeting, but the Fed’s dilemma remains. Brent crude has fallen to around $83 following a preliminary US–Iran agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, yet headline inflation has already accelerated to 4.2%, with core inflation at 2.9%. Meanwhile, May payrolls rose by a stronger-than-expected 172,000 and unemployment held at 4.3%. The Fed is expected to keep rates at 3.5%–3.75%, but its new projections could replace March’s solitary rate cut with no cuts or even a hike. Join us live for Kevin Warsh’s first meeting as Fed chair and what it means for your portfolio.
