I’ve got a VERY SPECIAL trade lined up, one that I always look forward to on FOMC afternoons. I’m gonna show you EXACTLY how you can potentially PROFIT HUGE off of this move. I know it may sound scary, but trust me, there’s a big opportunity waiting around the corner. So, I want to make sure you join me and Rob Booker TODAY, November 1 at 12 p.m. Eastern to see us break down how we’ll be attempting to capitalize on this pivotal moment for the market.

When investors and traders approach FOMC meetings, there are eight key items they tend to focus on. Let’s break them down… Interest Rate Decisions Perhaps the most watched outcome of FOMC meetings is whether the Committee has decided to raise, lower, or maintain the target range for the federal funds rate. Any change in rates can influence borrowing costs, consumer spending, and stock prices. Right now, bulls are hoping for lower rates, or at least a pause in the hiking cycle. But the Fed can’t lower rates, at least. Policy Statements Beyond the rate decision, the FOMC releases a statement that provides insights into its view of the economy. This can include assessments of inflation, employment, growth, and other economic indicators. Changes in language or tone from previous statements can signal future policy moves. Listen closely… Economic Projections Typically released quarterly, these projections provide the Committee's views on where key economic indicators might be headed soon. This includes GDP growth, unemployment rate, and inflation expectations. Have you ever noticed how a company’s projections can overshadow its revenue on an earnings call? This is why these economic projections are so critical to pay attention to during the FOMC meeting. Dot Plot Next, we’ll get the dot plot… This is a visual representation of where each FOMC member expects the federal funds rate to be at the end of the year (for the next few years and in the longer run). It provides a sense of the Committee's interest rate outlook. For traders, looking at the dot plot can potentially help you gauge the overall sentiment of the committee. Press Conference Following the FOMC meeting, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell is scheduled to hold a press conference. Traders pay close attention to the speech as Powell’s responses can offer deeper insights into the Committee's thinking. The Q&A session is often particularly juicy. As Powell begins answering questions, the market tends to whipsaw like crazy. If you plan to trade during the Q&A, do so with caution and discipline. Meeting Minutes Released three weeks after the FOMC meeting, the minutes provide a detailed account of the Committee's discussions. The minutes are sort of like a verbal transcript version of the “dot plot…” They can offer insights into the range of views held by members and the considerations that went into their decisions. Forward Guidance This refers to the FOMC's communication about its future monetary policy intentions. Just like economic projections, forward guidance can make or break a company’s outlook. And this isn’t that different for the Fed than it is for an individual company. This is why the Fed’s forward guidance is so crucial… Any indication of how long they intend to keep rates low, or when they might consider raising rates, is closely watched. Balance Sheet Policy Beyond interest rates, the Fed can use its balance sheet (through actions like quantitative easing) to influence economic conditions. Listen for hints about future changes to the Fed's balance sheet policy. These balance sheet policy murmurs can cause big moves in the market… You just have to know what to listen for. SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT There’s a good reason that experienced traders scrutinize all of this information… Understanding the macro side of things can help you to make more informed trading decisions. The FOMC can influence stock prices, bond yields, currency values, and more. This is why I get so hyped to trade FOMC meeting days. I’ve made some killer trades during these afternoons as heightened volatility hit the financial markets. Wanna see how I do it? Join me and Rob Booker, TODAY, November 1 at 12 p.m. Eastern to see how I plan on trading the biggest, most important FOMC decision of the last 5-10 years. SEATS ARE LIMITED.
