[Analyst: Fed Statement Dovish, Expected to Cut Rates by 100 Basis Points Next Year] Analyst Anna Wong stated that the Federal Reserve's policy statement and updated forecasts are generally dovish in tone. The committee significantly raised the growth trajectory, lowered the inflation outlook, kept the 'dot plot' unchanged, and announced the commencement of reserve management purchases. Although the statement suggests a preference for a prolonged pause in rate cuts and the 'dot plot' indicates only one rate cut in 2026, given the weak wage growth and no signs of inflation resurgence, it is expected that the Federal Reserve will ultimately cut rates by 100 basis points next year.
