According to Jinshi data, the main issue facing the Federal Reserve at this week's policy meeting is what signal Powell will send regarding the possibility of a rate cut in March. It is expected that Fed officials will not change rates at this meeting, but will prepare for future monetary easing.
The market expects a 50% chance of a rate cut in March. Reasons for the rate cut include declining inflation and avoiding an economic recession. Decisions regarding adjustments to the balance sheet will be announced at subsequent meetings.
