The U.S. Federal Reserve is anticipated to cut interest rates for the first time in over four years, with speculation on whether the reduction will be 25 or 50 basis points. This decision comes as inflation eases towards the Fed's target and the labor market cools. The rate cut is expected to influence global markets, particularly benefiting emerging economies like India by potentially spurring foreign investments. Despite divided opinions on Wall Street, a rate cut is likely to stimulate economic growth and decrease borrowing costs for consumers. The Fed’s decision, to be announced on Wednesday, could be pivotal, especially with the upcoming presidential election in mind. Analysts also highlight the impact of this move on various sectors, including insurance companies and homebuilders, which may see increased revenues and profits.
