Fed on Hold, Markets on Edge: Inside January’s FOMC Balancing Act
Joseph Choi and Sam Cutler join LiveSquawk’s Market Talk to preview the January 2026 FOMC meeting and the challenges facing policymakers. The discussion centers on expectations for unchanged rates, potential dissent among Fed officials, and the growing disconnect between strong GDP growth and a weakening labor market. They also examine how geopolitical noise — including President Trump’s remarks and speculation around Rick Rieder as a potential Fed Chair nominee — could influence market sentiment. The episode concludes with a look at Jerome Powell’s likely neutral stance as the Fed navigates low volatility, political pressure, and shifting global asset dynamics.
