Fed Minutes: Unanimous Support for 25-Basis-Point Rate Hike, Majority Plans Further Rate Increase This Year

On October 8, according to Jinshi Data, the latest Federal Reserve meeting minutes showed that all participating officials unanimously supported the decision to raise interest rates by 25 basis points. The records explicitly noted that the vast majority of attendees believed that, given the current economic environment, another rate hike before year-end could be an appropriate policy path.

The minutes detailed the deliberations of policymakers, indicating a strong internal consensus on controlling inflation and maintaining financial stability. This explicit policy stance has further eliminated market divergence over rate cut expectations, and the related macroeconomic guidance will have a substantive impact on global capital flows and asset pricing logic.
