The projections also include the so-called &#8220;dot plot,&#8221; which shows policymakers&#8217; expectations for interest rates over the coming years.<\/p>\n<p>The June dot-plot could &#8220;show the Fed on hold for the rest of this year,&#8221; noted Bank of America U.S. economist Aditya Bhave in a report. At least three of the FOMC&#8217;s 12 voting members may also project rate hikes this year, he added.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>When is the Fed&#8217;s interest rate announcement?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>The Federal Reserve will announce its interest rate decision at 2 p.m. ET on Wednesday.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>That will be followed by a press conference with new Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh at 2:30 p.m. ET, where he&#8217;ll take questions from journalists.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What will Warsh say about future interest rates?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Investors will pay particular attention to Warsh&#8217;s comments about inflation and, more broadly, the path of monetary policy, especially given Mr. Trump&#8217;s criticism of former Fed Chair Jerome Powell for moving too slowly to cut interest rates.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Watch for questions asking Mr. Warsh to reconcile statements seeking to lower interest rates with recent trends in inflation and employment,&#8221; Jerry Tempelman, former senior analyst at the New York Federal Reserve Bank and vice president of economic and fixed income research at Mutual of America Capital Management, in an email.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Warsh will likely use the press conference to start putting his own stamp on the central bank, especially given Powell&#8217;s decision to remain a\u00a0<span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/federal-reserve-fomc-meeting-today-rate-decision-jerome-powell-kevin-warsh\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Fed governor<\/a><\/span>\u00a0after stepping down as chair. Although no policy changes are expected this week, investors are looking for whether Warsh will signal changes in how the Fed communicates its economic views or interprets inflation data.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We already know it&#8217;s going to be contentious because there&#8217;s a lot of feelings out there, but he&#8217;s probably got to exert his control quicker,&#8221; Ben Fulton, CEO at investment advisor WEBs Investments, told CBS News.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Is the Fed likely to cut interest rates later this year?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>That is seen as increasingly unlikely given the hottest inflation in more than three years, according to economists. Instead, the Federal Reserve is more likely to keep rates steady for the remainder of 2026 \u2014 or even usher in a rate hike to tame rising prices.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The balance of risks has definitely shifted toward inflation being the biggest concern, and so that&#8217;s really going to drive any language around what the Fed&#8217;s next steps might be,&#8221; Renter of NerdWallet said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She added, &#8220;In the past several Fed meetings, the language is really skewed toward that potential future cut, and I think that&#8217;s going to be missing both from the policy statement and possibly in the press conference.&#8221;<\/p>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n<p class=\"content__meta--editors\">\n      Edited by<\/p>\n<p>                                  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/team\/alain-sherter\/\" class=\"byline__author__link\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">Alain  Sherter<\/a>\n                      <\/p>\n<\/section>\n<p>  <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside class=\"component list recirculation component--type-recirculation  \">\n<p><h3 class=\"component__title\">More from CBS News<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"component__item-recirc-block\">\n<p><h3 class=\"component__title\">Go deeper with The Free Press<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n      <!-- tags --><\/p>\n<section class=\"content__tags\">\n<p class=\"content__tags__label\">In:<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/section><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- ItShrt World News -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"1882483372\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/federal-reserve-interest-rates-kevin-warsh-june-2026\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh will hold his first press conference on Wednesday, offering borrowers and investors a chance to<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":85738,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[958,957,956],"class_list":["post-85737","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-money-watch","tag-federal-reserve","tag-inflation","tag-interest-rates"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Kevin Warsh set to lead his first Federal Reserve interest rate meeting.
