Investing.com – The meeting is likely to conclude on Wednesday evening, with investors awaiting Jerome Powell’s comments on the state of the economy and the future of monetary policy.
There is almost no chance that policymakers will make a move in either direction on interest rates. The latest data has given officials more time to make their monetary policy decisions. Inflation, although slowing, remains very high, and the economy is growing at a strong pace despite interest rates rising to their highest levels since the beginning of the century.

So what investors will be watching is not the rate decision itself, but the signals that will come from Chairman Jerome Powell and the rest of the Federal Open Market Committee regarding the direction they lean in the future on monetary policy.
Despite Powell’s efforts to walk a fine line between fighting inflation and trying to adjust to the impact of higher interest rates on the economy, markets have been extremely sensitive. Stocks have been reeling over the past two months, while yields have been hovering around 16-year highs.
With much of this concern centered around how high interest rates will go, and how long the Fed will keep them high, Powell’s post-meeting press conference, as well as the FOMC’s statement, might move markets.
However, the last thing Powell wants to do is make the mistake of appearing too hawkish, because the implications would be negative for the markets.
In his latest appearance, Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell hinted that inflation will continue to rise significantly. He stressed that “it may be necessary to adopt further monetary policy tightening measures,” indicating that his current policy will continue for a longer period.
However, it remains important to note that the Fed’s ability to predict the future has been inaccurate in recent years, raising questions regarding the validity of these predictions. In 2021, with the pace of inflation accelerating, Powell dismissed the price increases as “situational” and did not require an immediate response. This situation continued for a year until officials were finally forced to admit that inflation was more sustained than expected, raising interest rates the steepest in 40 years.

Important events besides the interest decision
Markets will have a dual focus on Wednesday. Earlier today, the Treasury Department will provide more information regarding its financing needs in the near future, in what might be a pivotal moment for investors with intense focus on how the government will manage its $33.7 trillion debt. In addition to the release in September, data.
It’s all happening two days before the Labor Department’s release, and comes on the heels of a report showing better-than-expected economic growth in the third quarter but likely a slowdown ahead.
“The Fed is likely to keep interest rates steady despite accelerating GDP and employment,” credit strategists at Bank of America (NYSE:) said in a note to clients.
They added: “The Fed has adopted a more dovish tone following interest rates on longer-term Treasuries rose. At the press conference, Chairman Powell is likely to reiterate that the Fed is ‘acting cautiously.’”
The bank added that it expected Powell’s statement following the meeting to largely mirror statements he made in New York earlier in October. In that speech, Powell said he considered inflation to remain too high, and warned that the Fed, though able to move cautiously, was attuned to the potential upside risks to inflation.

David Doyle, head of economics at Macquarie Group, said Powell’s comments may move markets more than the FOMC statement, adding that markets will be watching the Fed chairman’s views on the movement in Treasury yields.
Meanwhile, markets expect that there is no chance of a rate hike at this meeting, and there is only a 29% chance of a rate increase in December, but the first rate cut might come in June, according to .
However, some market participants believe the Fed may have to raise interest rates once more as inflation persists.
Matthew Ryan, head of market strategy at Ebori, said the Fed “will likely not signal that it is done tightening yet.”
He explained: “We still see that there will be no further increase in US interest rates in the current cycle, and as a compromise, we believe that the Federal Reserve will confirm that interest rate cuts are not on the table anytime soon, with easing starting no earlier than the second half.” From 2024.”

L’International Air Transport Association (IATA) and self industrial partners and aeronautics have successfully tested the first travel experience using thefully integrated digital passenger identitystreamlining the process from booking through border crossing formalities to boarding.
The proof of concept was successfully carried out on a route between London Heathrow and Rome Fiumicino with British Airways. “ Our vision of future travel is completely digital and secure with biometric identification. Although the technology exists to do this at every stage of a journey, connecting these stages together has proven to be a challenge. Today, with our partners, we have shown that it is possible. This will open up a world of possibilities for simpler travel in the future “, explained Nick Careen, IATA’s Senior Vice President of Operations, Safety and Security.
Other partners participating in this first experience include Accenture, Amadeus, Australian Border Force, AWS, Branchspace, British Airways, IDnow, Aeroporti di Roma, Trip.com and Verchaska. The success demonstrated the potential for a future fully integrated digital travel experience leveraging biometrics with:
–Personalized offers : This will be seen in the shopping experience where travelers will be able to receive personalized offers across all shopping channels. The LHR-FCO passenger shared his loyalty card data (stored as a verifiable identifier in his smartphone’s digital wallet) with a tour operator. This enabled airlines using the New Distribution Capacity (NDC) to offer personalized offers through the travel agency channel.
–Simplified booking : Once the traveler chooses from the offers, a reservation is generated in the form of a verifiable identifier which can be stored in a digital wallet. No more need for passenger name records (PNR), electronic tickets or various electronic documents. All travel information is stored in the verifiable receipt, which can also be read as a QR code.
–Effortless checking of travel requirements : Many processes can be carried out well before the traveler arrives at the airport. Alongside the digital wallet, a digital passport (stored in the traveler’s digital wallet) is a key tool. By sharing digital passport nationality data, passengers can confirm travel document requirements. IATA’s Timatic solution supports this.
–Secure recordings : The traveler also chose to share their digital passport and order data with their airline, British Airways, to receive confirmation that they are ready to fly and seat assignment via text message, being spared the hassle manual data entry. The traditional boarding pass becomes optional if the traveler is offered and accepts a contactless experience at the airport.
–Contactless airport experience : for the traveler who has chosen to share their biometric data, it will be possible to store it in a phone and pass through the airport hands-free (with your phone and passport in a pocket or handbag). The biometric terminals then allow LHR-FCO travelers to pass through security, access the lounges and board the plane.
« In the future, all you need to travel will be a smartphone containing a digital wallet containing your digital passport, loyalty cards and other verifiable travel credentials. Achieving this reality requires the type of cooperation we demonstrated with this LHR-FCO flight involving eleven partners coming together to facilitate the first fully integrated digital journey. Success, of course, relies on interoperability and global standards, making the benefits of digital travel convenience available to travelers throughout their journey and wherever it takes them. said IATA’s Nick Careen.

They are called slaughter crosses, from the verb occire, to kill. They bloom at the bend of the roads, often national ones, at the place where a fatal accident has occurred. These small buildings are erected by relatives, in memory of the deceased. These are in no way burial sites, of course, but memorial sites.
This is the case along rue de Corbais, in the town of Mont-Saint-Guibert. In the middle of fresh and artificial flowers, a cherub, a cross and a motorcycle helmet. In the town, many residents, like the mayor Julien Breuer, know the meaning of this altar erected by the family:
“This cross is there in memory of a young person from the village who had an unfortunate motorcycle accident, at the intersection of rue de Corbais and chemin de Sevièze; it was in the early 2000s, he died and this cross is still decorated with flowers by his mother. It is, so to speak, part of the public domain, no one questions its presence there. “
Four other crosses are present on the territory of the municipality and as long as they do not present a danger to security, the mayor happily authorizes them.
