What happened

The Federal Open Market Committee has decided to hold interest rates, but the decision was closely contested. This update comes as the Fed's stance on inflation is being closely watched.

The decision to hold rates was accompanied by three dissents in favor of a rate hike, indicating a division within the committee. According to Goldman Sachs, these dissents suggest the Fed is 'running out of patience' with inflation.

However, despite the hawkish dissents, the Fed's decision to hold rates now raises questions about the potential for a rate hike in September. The odds of a September rate hike appear to have increased following the meeting.
