Fed Holds Rates Steady—But Two Dissenters Rock the Boat in Surprise Split

The Federal Reserve just hit pause—again. No rate changes this month, but the real story? Two voting members broke ranks in a rare public disagreement.
Dissent in the Ranks
While Jerome Powell’s crew kept the status quo, two hawks slammed the brakes on unanimity. No names yet—but someone’s clearly itching to crank rates higher despite Wall Street’s champagne wishes.
Market Whiplash Ahead?
Traders yawned at the non-move, but those dissenting votes just planted seeds for future chaos. Watch the dot plot next meeting—this could be the start of a beautiful (or brutal) policy rift.
Another day, another Fed meeting where bankers get paid to debate whether free money should be slightly less free. Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s open 24/7.
