Fed says stimulus wind down to begin 'relatively soon,' leaves rates unchanged
- The FOMC unanimously voted to keep the fed funds target range at 1.00%-1.25%.
- Regarding the central bank's $4.5 trillion balance sheet, the Fed indicated that it expects to begin the paring process "relatively soon", which has been largely interpreted as September.
- The CME FedWatch Tool now points to the March FOMC meeting (from December) as the most likely time for the next rate-hike announcement with an implied probability of 55.1%.
