The Fed's decision to raise the key interest rate by 25 basis points did not surprise traders. Thus, unlike the following press conference, it had zero effect on the market. The speech provided by the Fed Chair spurred a slump in the US dollar. It seems that the US regulator is in a panic and does not know what to do. Such an impression was caused by a transcript of Jerome Powell's comments. Earlier, the Federal Reserve talked about external factors and obstacles posed by Russia and sometimes by China. The situation has altered and the US has faced a grave banking crisis. Although Jerome Powell attempted to alleviate the situation, investors did not believe him. The regulator continues to repeat that it is necessary to reach the targeted inflation level and keep high employment. Nevertheless, such a sharp change in its rhetoric makes it clear that the Fed is a bit puzzled. It seems that the situation in the banking sector came as a surprise. It is evident that such an idea is frightening people. Thus, there is no use to explain the reasons for a possible cut in the key rate.
