BlockBeats News, December 6: Next week, the last FOMC meeting of the year will take place, and the hawk-dove debate is highly anticipated. The Fed is set to announce its interest rate decision on Thursday at 3:00 (UTC+8), with Fed Chair Powell holding a monetary policy press conference at 3:30 (UTC+8). According to CME FedWatch, there is an 84% probability of a 25 basis points rate cut next week. The upcoming Fed meeting is expected to be one of the most controversial meetings in recent years, with investor focus on the policymakers' divergence on the outlook for rate cuts and the signals Fed Chair Powell will send about the future direction of policy. Among the 12 voting members of the FOMC, five are opposed or skeptical of further monetary policy easing, while three members support a rate cut. Since 2019, there hasn't been a meeting where three or more dissenting votes occurred, making dissenters a subject of close attention.
