Powell admitted that even though the markets are pricing in multiple rate cuts this year, Powell himself has no idea if the Fed will be cutting rates at all this year. The truth is the Fed should be hiking rates. Cutting rates instead would just compound the Fed’s mistake.

Fed Chair Powell was asked if its appropriate for the Fed to cut rates AT ALL in 2025:
His response: “There are cases in which it would be appropriate to cut rates, there are cases where it wouldn’t.”
The Fed is NOT ruling out 0 interest rate cuts in 2025.

JPOW ON IF WE SHOULD GET ANY RATE CUTS THIS YEAR:

Trump’s gonna have a field day with that answer
