The U.S. Federal Reserve has raised its benchmark interest rate to 3.75%-4%, the first hike since 2023, in a unanimous decision that goes against President Donald Trump’s calls for lower rates. Policymakers signaled further tightening ahead as inflation remains above target and concerns grow over the economic impact of tariffs, energy shocks and the AI investment boom.[5][13][3][14]
