Tom White analyzes the Fed's decision to hold rates steady, noting that 9 of 18 FOMC participants penciled in a rate hike for 2026, and the median 2026 GDP forecast was lowered to 2.2%. He expects new Fed Chair Kevin Warsh to face hardball questions in his first press conference, potentially signaling a shift toward less transparency and more internal debate. White sees a bifurcated outlook: resilient consumer spending and strong earnings support risk assets, while falling crude oil prices may ease inflation, but the Fed's hawkish tilt could push yields higher.
