What happened

Well supportedReported by 15 independent outlets

Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh plans to gradually reduce the number of meetings convened by the Federal Reserve to vote on interest rates. The Fed confirmed that policymakers will meet eight times in 2027, but by 2028, there will be only six meetings accompanied by policy votes, with two others dedicated to strategy discussions. This change is intended to give officials more time for deliberations.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The reduction in meeting frequency means policymakers will have only a partial snapshot of the economy when making rate decisions, as fresh inflation data may arrive after the decision is finalized. This shift toward less predictable policy, combined with Warsh's retreat from forward guidance, could increase market turbulence and volatility in the Treasury market.
