Fed minutes suggest one rate cut – at most
==========
Federal Reserve's FOMC minutes indicate a hawkish stance; only one rate cut expected in 2025. Inflation remains sticky, necessitating higher interest rates than anticipated. Minutes from December 17-18 meeting show some members favor pausing rate cuts if inflation stays above target. Fed Chair Jerome Powell compares current economic conditions to 'driving on a foggy night.' Nigel Green, CEO of deVere Group, warns that premature cuts could harm Fed's credibility. Green suggests strategies for investors: focus on quality equities, inflation hedges like gold and Bitcoin, avoid risky sectors reliant on cheap borrowing. He predicts a slowdown in rate cuts in 2025, urging investors to adapt to elevated rates.
