Federal Reserve left interest rates unchanged
The US Federal Reserve voted Wednesday to hold interest rates at a 22-year high for the third straight meeting and signalled it expects to make three cuts next year.
The US central bank left interest rates unchanged as it said it remained committed to slowing price rises.
Members of the Federal Reserve gave the strongest sign yet that they expect to start cutting rates next year.
Projections released after the bank's meeting showed they expect its key interest rate to stand at 4.6% next year, more than half a percentage point lower than the current rate.
