Jerome Powell’s FOMC press conference just ended and here's everything the Fed told the market, in simple terms:

-The Fed held rates at 3.5%–3.75% The vote was 10–2, meaning only two members wanted a cut, and nobody pushed for a hike Powell clearly said: “A rate hike is not anyone’s base case” That is the Fed openly saying tightening is finished

So the direction is no longer: Should we hike more?
It is now: How long do we hold before we cut?

More key points from Powell:
Inflation is still elevated, but most of the excess inflation is coming from tariffs, not real demand Core PCE excluding tariff effects is running only slightly above 2%

3. Powell said tariff-driven inflation should peak by mid-2026 and then come down later this year which will give the Fed room to loosen policy.

On growth and jobs:

Powell said the economy has once again surprised with its strengthUnemployment is showing signs of stabilization The Fed believes current policy is already restrictive enough

On future policy:

Decisions will be made meeting by meeting No decisions have been made about future cuts But hikes are no longer being discussed as a realistic path

On the dollar:

Powell explicitly said the Fed does not comment on the dollar He also said there is not much evidence that foreign investors are aggressively hedging out of dollar assets

On the U.S. deficit:

Powell said the U.S. budget deficit is unsustainable And the sooner it is addressed, the better. This is what pumped Gold to new highs

On independence and politics:

Powell said that the Fed has not lost independence He does not believe it will lose independence He will continue making decisions objectively

On tariffs:

Powell said tariffs are likely a one time price increase Most inflation overruns are coming from tariffs, not demand If tariff effects fade, policy can become easier.

On the rate cuts:

Powell said policy may now be loosely neutral or somewhat restrictive The Fed has already moved a good way on rates No one expects the next move to be a hike.

On government shutdown:

Powell said any effects from the shutdown should be reversed this quarter Meaning he sees it as temporary, not a structural risk
So when you put everything together, the message is very clear:
The Fed is done hiking Inflation pressure is fading Tariffs are the main remaining risk The next expected move is eventually a cut, not a hike Financial conditions are no longer being tightened The system is shifting from restriction to stabilization
This meeting confirmed something huge:
The tightening cycle is over.
Now the market is waiting for the easing cycle to begin.
