But there was also a notable shift in the central bank’s stance. Fed officials essentially said they would have to wait and see how the economy performs before determining whether to raise rates again in June — opening the door to a possible pause. “This is a very significant change,” said my colleague Jeanna Smialek, who covers the Fed. “Up until now, the Fed has really been in this posture where they were always clear that their next move was likely going to be a rate increase.” Many companies and investors are craving lower interest rates, but Jeanna emphasized that it was too soon to know how the central bank would proceed. And Fed Chair Jerome Powell made clear that the central bank did not expect any interest rate cuts this year.

Ukraine strongly denied any involvement and suggested that Russia had manufactured the incident to distract attention from a looming counteroffensive. The incident could serve as a pretext for Putin to launch new strikes on Ukraine.

Things go awry, but through it all Mariah Carey’s “Always Be My Baby,” a smash hit from 1995, plays in the background.
