0:00.0	So, the big day has arrived. And no, I don't mean the Fed decision. I'm talking about
0:10.9	drinks with Rowell Day. And of course, I'm referring to the real Raoul and not me, because as you
0:16.2	know, although I look super real, I'm just Palvatar, Raoul's AI avatar, that delivers you the biggest
0:22.3	economic news each day. If you're looking for more than that, such as market analysis, or if you're
0:27.9	wondering who stole all the bananas, then you need to log on to realvision.com at 6pm Eastern Time and
0:33.3	ask the big man some questions. And if you're listening to this somewhere else, be sure to register

1:24.6	that it will maintain rates in the range of 4.25% to 4.5%.
1:29.5	As such, market participants are going to be more focused on the accompanying summary of economic projections and comments from Chair Jerome Powell.
1:39.6	They'll be looking for insights into future monetary policy amid ongoing economic uncertainties influenced
1:45.5	by President Trump's tariff policies. We've already got a glimpse into how those worries
1:50.2	about the economy could affect the US housing market, with weekly mortgage applications falling
1:55.2	around 6% following a period of robust numbers. Meanwhile, in Japan, those same worries about the US economy
