Bloomberg's Tom Keene, Jonathan Ferro and Lisa Abramowicz discuss remarks from Fed Chair Jay Powell following the Federal Reserve's latest policy decision on a special edition of Bloomberg Surveillance|Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said interest rates are in the right place to manage continued uncertainty around tariffs and inflation, tempering expectations for a rate cut in September.“There are many, many uncertainties left to resolve,” Powell told reporters Wednesday following the central bank’s decision to once again keep rates unchanged. “It doesn’t feel like we are very close to the end of that process.”The Federal Open Market Committee voted 9-2 to hold its benchmark federal funds rate in a range of 4.25%-4.5%, as they have at each of their meetings this year. Governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman voted against the decision in favor of a quarter-point cut.Traders pared back their expectations for rate cuts as Powell spoke. Interest-rate futures indicated roughly even odds on a reduction at the next meeting in September, down from about 60% earlier in the day. Treasuries extended losses, the dollar surged to the highest since May and the S&P 500 fell.In their post-meeting statement, officials downgraded their view of the US economy, saying “recent indicators suggest that growth of economic activity moderated in the first half of the year.” The Fed had previously characterized growth as expanding “at a solid pace.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Watch Tom and Paul LIVE every day on YouTube: http://bit.ly/3vTiACF.Bloomberg Surveillance hosted by Tom Keene & Paul SweeneyJuly 28th, 2025Featuring:1) Abby Joseph Cohen, professor at Columbia University and former Chief Investment Strategist at Goldman Sachs, brings us into the market open and talks about Fed and trade policy. Fed policymakers are largely expected to hold rates steady for a fifth consecutive meeting in the face of sustained pressure from President Trump on Powell to lower borrowing costs.2) Amy Wu Silverman, Head of Derivatives Strategy at RBC Capital Markets, joins for an extended discussion on US stock volatility and why expectations are volatile but not volatility itself. S&P 500 contracts were little changed in the lead-up to the Federal Reserve interest-rate decision, which have become a cause of contention between the White House and Fed Chair Jerome Powell.3) Ryan Majerus, former Assistant General Counsel at the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative during the first Trump Administration, talks about who's driving the Trump administration's trade policy and what tariffs will look like August 1st. President Trump's recent trade deal announcements are light on detail, with key aspects still under negotiation and partners giving mixed signals about what they signed up for.4) Mark Howard, Managing Director and Senior Multi-Asset Specialist at BNP Paribas, joins to discuss why today will either prove to be a "trifecta" of economic news, or a "trilemma." As the Fed meeting comes into focus in the afternoon, investors will watch for any signs of a greater openness from the Fed to easing when it next gathers in September. 5) Ari Wald, Head of Technical Analysis for Oppenheimer, talks about why the bull market is just overbought but not over.
