National Spotlight: Interest Rates Hold Steady
In the latest Federal Reserve meeting this July, interest rates were maintained at their current range of 5.25% to 5.5%. Despite this pause, market analysts are forecasting a potential rate cut as soon as September, influenced by a balanced job market and approaching target inflation rates.
