Evidence of what happened
At its Sep 16–17, 2025 FOMC meeting the Federal Reserve cut the federal funds target rate by 25 bps to a range of 4.00%–4.25%, in an 11-to-1 vote (Miran dissenting for a larger cut).
Coverage of the decision confirms the quarter-point cut and dot-plot signaling of two more cuts by year-end, citing labor-market weakness.
