Federal Reserve
Federal Reserve’s policy committee met on October 28 2026, voting 10‑2 to keep the federal funds target range at 3.75 %–4 %. Chair Kevin Warsh said inflation remained above the 2 % goal. No new policy language was released. The Fed’s decision coincided with a Treasury bond buyback that pushed the 10‑year yield to 5.342 %, the highest level since April 2002. Bitcoin fell below $80,000 in response to the hawkish stance, and bond yields were flat ahead of the meeting. The Fed’s 10‑2 outcome was supported by governors Lisa Cook and Beth Hammack, while dissenting members favored a rate increase.· Entity summary generated by Graphiti
