The Federal Reserve System, commonly known as the Fed, is the central banking system of the United States. It is composed of the Board of Governors, the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC), and the 12 regional Federal Reserve Banks. The Fed manages monetary policies, interest rates, and money supply in the country. It also supervises and regulates local banks and provides financial services to the US government and financial institutions.
The Fed’s main goal is to set and carry out monetary policies to maintain the United States’ financial stability. Their decisions can therefore have substantial impact on the financial markets such as stocks, forex, bonds, and commodities.
The Fed can impact the bond and forex markets through its control of short-term interest rates. By adjusting the federal funds rate (the interest rate at which banks lend and borrow federal reserves from each other), it can influence corporate bond rates. By raising interest rates, it can make the US dollar more attractive, increasing the currency’s demand and thus its exchange rate in forex.
Additionally, the Fed can impact market sentiment by increasing or decreasing investor confidence. For example, if the Fed announces that it will cut interest rates in the future, investors may anticipate an economic downturn and adjust their investment portfolios and strategies accordingly. On the other hand, if it announces it will raise interest rates, investors may anticipate economic growth and adjust their portfolios and strategies accordingly.

Investing in CFDs involves a high degree of risk that you will lose your money due to the use of leverage, particularly in fast moving markets, where a relatively small movement in the price can lead to a proportionately larger movement in the value of your investment. This can result in loses that exceed the funds in your account. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and you should seek independent advice if necessary.
