The U.S. Federal Reserve has issued their final rate cut of 2024, saying that what happens next year will depend on the actions and policies of the incoming Trump administration. Some at the reserve has signaled that the rate cuts will slow down as business leaders say inflation is not coming down enough.

Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook on Monday urged monetary policymakers to proceed "more cautiously" with interest rate cuts, given the Fed's 100 basis points of policy easing since September. Cook continues to believe it will be appropriate to move the benchmark rate toward a more neutral stance over time.
