Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland President Beth Hammack said policymakers can review more economic data before deciding their next interest-rate move. September payrolls rose by 29,000 and unemployment reached 4.2%, while average monthly job creation over the past year was 41,000, broadly matching Hammack’s estimate for keeping the labor market stable. The Federal Open Market Committee (the Fed’s rate-setting panel) is due to meet on Oct. 27-28. The Fed cut? No: it raised its benchmark rate by 25 basis points last month, setting a target range of 3.75% to 4%, and officials projected another increase before year-end. Recent comments suggest rates are unlikely to change at the October meeting, with future tightening dependent on incoming data and the balance between slowing hiring and persistent inflation concerns.
