Global shares are mixed in cautious trading ahead of the Federal Reserve’s decision on interest rates later in the week.
A currency trader reads documents at the foreign exchange dealing room of the KEB Hana Bank headquarters in Seoul, South Korea, Tuesday, Sept. 19, 2023. Asian shares mostly declined in cautious trading Tuesday ahead of the Federal Reserves looming decision on interest rates. France's CAC 40 added 0.2% to 7,292.91 in early trading. Germany's DAX fell nearly 0.1% to 15,716.61. Britain's FTSE 100 was little changed, rising less than 0.1% to 7,659.91.
Traders almost universally expect the Fed to keep rates steady at its meeting this week. Attention will mainly focus on forecasts Fed officials will publish about where they expect interest rates, the economy and the job market to head in upcoming years. Fears are strong that rates may have to stay higher for longer to get inflation down to the Fed’s 2% target. That quest has been complicated by a recent spike in oil prices.
