The Federal Reserve, led by Chair Jerome Powell, announced Wednesday that it is keeping the benchmark interest rate at 4.5%, maintaining its current level for the second consecutive meeting.
The decision was released following a two-day session of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC). The rate has remained at 4.5% since December, when the Fed implemented its last adjustment.
