At the 2026 IMF and WBG annual meetings in Bangkok on Friday, Fed Chair Kevin Warsh said he will not pre-judge future rate decisions and did not indicate whether the Fed will raise rates at its Oct. 27-28 policy meeting or hold them as markets expect. He said the Fed’s September hike made clear it will achieve price stability and has withdrawn a degree of policy accommodation, and added he will not disclose in advance what he might do at the remaining meetings this year.
