Jerome Powell is currently scheduled to give an FOMC Introductory Statement and press conference on April 29, 2026, at 2:30 PM ET. This market pertains to his Introductory Statement as well as the following Q&A session. This market will resolve to "Yes" if Powell says the listed term during the FOMC Press Conference. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". Any usage of the word regardless of context will count toward the resolution of this market. Pluralization/possessive of the word will count toward the resolution of this market, however other forms will NOT count. Instances where the term is used in a compound word will count regardless of context (e.g. joyful is not a compound word for "joy," however "killjoy" is a compounding of the words "kill" and "joy"). If no such statement happens by April 29, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, this market will resolve to "No". The resolution source will be video and transcripts of the FOMC Press conference.Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's April 29, 2026, press conference following the FOMC's two-day meeting—his likely final one before his May 15 term ends—centers trader focus amid a leadership transition to nominee Kevin Warsh. Recent data, including the April 15 Beige Book noting moderate price rises and tightening financial conditions, alongside resilient GDP growth near 2.4%, steady unemployment around 4.4%, and stubborn inflation fueled by oil shocks from Iran tensions and tariff impacts, point to rates held at 3.50%-3.75% with four dissenting votes signaling internal divisions. Powell emphasized a cautious, data-dependent stance prioritizing the dual mandate of price stability and maximum employment, with no rush for cuts despite geopolitical uncertainties. Markets eye his remarks on Fed independence and economic projections for signals on future policy.
