Good MorningThe market got what it wanted from the Fed and more. The FOMC left its rates unchanged and indicated a low-interest rate policy long into the future. The official statement says inflation could run well above the target 2.0% for an extended time, individual members indicate the zero-interest-rate environment could last through the end of 2023.
What this means for business is the ability to invest in operations without fear of the Fed. With interest rates on hold for an indefinite amount of time, investors should expect economic activity to continue to build. What this means for the markets is the historic bull market is far from over but there are still many risks. The number one risk of course is COVID-19. Even so, the Fed chief Jerome Powell said social distancing and masks will aid the recovery. The Atlanta Fed is forecasting GDP will run above 25% in the 3rd quarter.

From Our Partners | | A drilling crew near the Grand Canyon uncovered a clean energy well producing nearly eight times the output of Saudi Arabia's largest oil field, with potential to last two million years.
