Episode description

The Federal Reserve held its key interest rate steady for the third straight time, but also set the table for multiple cuts to come in 2024 and beyond.

That’s less than market pricing of four, but more aggressive than what officials had previously indicated.

We’ll break down what that means for markets and your money, right up until Fed Chair Powell’s press conference.
