This week marks a critical period for global monetary policy as several major central banks, including the Federal Reserve, the European Central Bank, and the Bank of Canada, are set to announce their interest rate decisions. The Federal Reserve is expected to maintain its current interest rate, while the European Central Bank is anticipated to cut rates by 0.25%. The Bank of Canada is poised to implement its sixth consecutive rate cut, albeit a more modest one at 0.25%, influenced by recent inflation and jobs data. Additionally, central banks in Latin America, including those in Chile, Brazil, and Colombia, will also convene, with Brazil's central bank expected to raise rates by 100 basis points to combat inflation. These decisions come amid heightened economic uncertainty due to potential tariff threats from U.S. President Donald Trump, which could impact global trade and economic stability.
