TechFlow News, March 21: HSBC stated that the Federal Reserve held its policy interest rate unchanged at 3.50%–3.75% during its March meeting and signaled a “wait-and-see” stance. Persistent inflation and rising geopolitical risks have introduced uncertainty for the Fed. We maintain our previous view that the Fed will hold rates steady in 2026 and 2027. Inflation risks have increased, particularly due to surging energy prices, while labor market risks have eased slightly. Volatility in energy prices and geopolitical risks are expected to continue supporting safe-haven demand and strengthening the U.S. dollar.
