The US Federal Reserve's FOMC begins its two-day meeting on April 28, with the rate decision due at 2:00 PM ET on April 29 followed by Jerome Powell's press conference at 2:30 PM ET.
The US Federal Reserve kept rates at 3.5%, 3.75% for the third straight meeting after an 8-4 FOMC vote, with no updated economic projections released. A steady US rate environment reduces near-term pressure on the Indian rupee and foreign capital outflows from emerging markets.
The Federal Reserve kept interest rates unchanged but logged its highest level of internal dissent since 1992. That level of disagreement among policymakers signals a real split on the path ahead for rates. Markets will watch closely for clues on whether a policy shift may come sooner than expected.
FIIs sold Rs 17,140 crore of Indian equities last week, taking April's total outflow to Rs 43,967 crore and the 2026 running total to Rs 1.75 lakh crore. Geopolitical concerns and weak sectoral leadership are driving the exits, pressuring domestic indexes. The US FOMC and Bank of Japan rate decisions are the next key
Fed Chair Jerome Powell's six-word warning to Wall Street, issued more than six months ago, is reported to remain valid today. The warning's persistence signals no meaningful shift in the Fed's policy posture, with direct consequences for rate expectations and market sentiment.
