US Federal Reserve is widely expected to hold interest rates steady on Wednesday after a summer of mixed economic data, while leaving the door open to another hike if needed. The Fed has raised interest rates 11 times over the last 18 months, lifting its key lending rate to a level not seen for 22 years as it tackles inflation still stubbornly above its long-term target of two percent. After falling sharply over the last year, inflation has ticked up again in recent months due to a spike in energy costs, keeping up the pressure on the Fed. But analysts and traders still broadly expect the US central bank to hold rates steady on September 19-20 in order to give policymakers more time to assess the health of the world's largest economy. «We think the Fed is done with its tightening cycle,» EY Chief Economist Gregory Daco told AFP.

Reliance Jio, Bharti Airtel and Vodafone Idea — are expected to limit media spending in the upcoming ICC Cricket World Cup, media planners said, adding their cumulative spends for the festive season could well be around half of the ₹350 crore they spent last year. The World Cup, which coincides with the Diwali season this year, will form part of the media plan, but may be restricted to digital activations and point-of-sale promotions, as opposed to mainline television campaigns with only two meaningful telecom advertisers in the market and the need for aggressive high-cost marketing being low, they added. However, the longer festive season — September end to December end — may see the telcos loosen their purse strings, especially if 5G smartphone shipments show signs of pick-up. «We observe that the telecom industry did not invest significantly in the past year, and even the smartphone market is anticipated to launch multiple campaigns, resulting in an upswing in demand for telecom services.

European Central Bank cuts interest rates in the first half of next year would be a mistake, according to Governing Council member Martins Kazaks. Wage growth in the euro zone hasn't yet peaked and it's unclear how quickly underlying inflation will retreat, the head of Latvia's central bank said. Last week's decision to lift borrowing costs for a 10th straight time puts the ECB more solidly on track to reach its 2% target in 2025, but it's too soon to exclude another hike. “The market shouldn't expect that we would jump too early to cut rates,” Kazaks said in an interview. “We'll start cutting rates when we see that we consistently and significantly start to undershoot our target, and what I can say clearly is that expectations of a rate cut in spring or early summer in my view are not really consistent with the macro scenario that we have.” Traders are starting to price cuts from April of next year and some economists see them as early as June. Projections presented last week show that inflation in the 20-member euro area will take another two years to reach 2%, even as price pressures are set to slow sharply in the coming months. The economy is seen returning to quarterly growth rates of 0.4% in 2024 after stagnating for most of 2023.
