WASHINGTON — The Federal Reserve is hinting at a possible rate hike.
Rates are currently steady because nine members of the Federal Reserve overruled the last vote for an increase.
Notes from the July meeting suggest Fed members are monitoring the impacts on inflation from the war with Iran and President Donald Trump’s tariffs.
The long-term goal is to slow inflation to around 2%.
