The Federal Reserve has decided to maintain interest rates at 5.25%-5.5% during its November meeting. The Fed reaffirmed its commitment to achieving a 2% inflation target and will continue to monitor economic data and outlook. The Fed acknowledges that inflation remains elevated and tighter credit conditions are likely to exert downward pressure on economic activity. The market showed little movement following the announcement, with the U.S. dollar index, tracked by the Invesco DB USD Index Bullish Fund ETF (UUP), seeing a marginal 0.1% decline. The iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (TLT) recorded a 1.3% increase, while the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (SPY) posted a 0.4% gain and the Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ) surged by 0.8%.
