Fed Leaves Rates Unchanged 5th Time in Row Amid Inflation


   
   SECAUCUS, NJ (DTN) -- The Federal Reserve said Wednesday (7/29) it left U.S. 
interest rates unchanged at 3.50-3.75% following a two-day meeting as 
policymakers continued to assess the impact of the Middle East conflict on 
rising U.S. inflationary pressures.

   Wednesday's decision marks the fifth consecutive rate hold for the central 
bank since the start of 2026, and the second under Chair Kevin Warsh, who 
succeeded Jerome Powell in May.
