The Federal Reserve has increased its key rate by 0.25%, bringing it to a range of 3.75%-4%. This is the first rate hike since July 2023, with officials indicating that another increase could be on the horizon this year, as inflation continues to run above the Fed’s 2% target. The upcoming Fed meeting on October 27-28, 2026, will be crucial as officials reassess both inflation and overall economic conditions.
