Good Morning, Traders!…👋
U.S. stocks treaded water before the bell on Wednesday as investors awaited the Federal Reserve's policy decision, seeking insights into the economy amid tariff risks.
Investors are looking to the Fed to provide a catalyst that could either support or derail stocks' attempt to recover from their recent sharp sell-off. The central bank is overwhelmingly expected to hold interest rates steady in its policy decision on Wednesday afternoon.
With rate cuts seen as off the table for March, all eyes are on the Fed's "dot plot" — indicating where officials expect rates to move next — and Chair Jerome Powell's press conference, which could shape expectations for future easing.
The focus on the Fed is further amplified by rising concerns about U.S. economic growth and inflation, particularly amidst President Trump's escalating trade war.
