Fed lifts rates 25 bps as Warsh: inflation still too high, economy strengthening

By BORSA NewsroomPublished Sep 16, 2026, 2:32 PM EDTUpdated Sep 16, 2026, 2:33 PM EDT

The FOMC raised its benchmark rate by a quarter point. Chair Warsh said the economy is resilient but inflation remains elevated, with summer data showing little improvement, and too many categories still rising above 3%. He cited economic strength, a capex surge, and geopolitical risk as reasons for the 10-year yield hitting 5%.
