SMM December 20: the Federal Reserve raised interest rates on the ground, "Yang Ma" timely comfort, the domestic commodity market is peaceful, afternoon thread, iron ore strong pull to boost the black system. Colored concussion is dominant.
Against the backdrop of turmoil in financial markets and slowing global economic growth, the Fed stood firm at its last meeting of the year to raise interest rates by 25 basis points to between 2.25 per cent and 2.5 per cent. Although it said it might slow down the pace of raising interest rates. But judging from the financial markets, the meeting was not as dovish as expected. The people's Bank of China cut interest rates on the eve of the Fed's rate hike, suggesting that downward macroeconomic pressure remains strong.
Data on weekly jobless claims and leading indicators will be released in the United States today, while the Bank of Japan and the Bank of England will announce interest rate decisions.
