The Fed held rates at 4.25% Wednesday, its fourth straight pause. Futures ticked up 0.3% within minutes of the statement. The vote was unanimous; the next decision lands September 17.
Two committee members had signaled discomfort with the pause in speeches this month. Neither dissented. The statement’s inflation language was unchanged from June.
At this size, that’s the whole story — what happened, the number, the date. The receipts carry the rest.
