AllSides Media Bias Rating: Center
The Federal Reserve signaled greater doubt over how much it would continue to cut rates after agreeing to a reduction on Wednesday that Chair Jerome Powell conceded had been a close call.
The latest cut, approved by 11 of 12 Fed voters, will lower the Fed’s benchmark federal-funds rate to a range between 4.25% and 4.5%, a two-year low.
