The US Federal Reserve cut interest rates by a quarter point, setting the overnight funds rate to 4-4.25%. This expected decision was unanimous except for new member Stephen Miran who voted for a half-point cut. Markets reacted mildly with the S&P 500 down 0.1%, Nasdaq Composite down 0.3%, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average up 0.6%.
