What this page tracks
FOMC rate decisions and statements, the dot plot and projections, speeches from the Fed chair and governors, inflation and jobs data that drive policy, and market reaction. Each story links to its original publisher.
How the Fed sets rates
The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) sets the federal funds target range, meeting eight times a year. It raises rates to cool inflation and cuts them to support growth and employment — its dual mandate. Alto pairs many stories with analysis to explain the stakes.
