PANews reported on April 8th that the Federal Reserve will release the minutes of its March monetary policy meeting at 2:00 AM Beijing time tonight (Thursday). The market will focus on identifying disagreements among officials regarding inflation, the path of interest rates, and whether to consider raising interest rates. The minutes will reveal how officials assessed inflation risks and the possibility of long-term inflation expectations "decoupling" against the backdrop of escalating tensions in the Middle East and soaring oil prices. Since the outbreak of the Iran-Iraq War in late February, financial conditions have been passively tightened due to rising borrowing costs. While the market still expected only one rate cut this year after the March meeting, this expectation is weakening. The minutes may also mention the conditions under which rate hikes will be reconsidered, and whether there has been a significant split in the risk balance assessment within the policymaking team, thus affecting the maintenance or adjustment of subsequent interest rates.
