Fed raises rates by 25bps for first time in 3 years, signaling shift after bond yield surge.

The Federal Reserve increased the Fed Funds Rate by 25 basis points to a range of 3.75%–4.00%, marking its first rate hike in three years. This move comes after bond yields, particularly the 10-year Treasury yield, rose sharply by 130 basis points despite rate cuts since September 2024, indicating that earlier cuts may have been a policy mistake. Fed Chairman Warsh's decision to raise rates reflects a new approach that takes market signals seriously, diverging from previous cycles of monetary policy. This shift suggests the Fed is responding to bond market feedback to better manage inflation and economic stability going forward.

The Federal Reserve's recent policy shift is presented here with Pluang's Financials-sector data for context. As of Sep 17, 2026 20:41 WIB, 56 out of 74 Financials-sector US stocks on Pluang rose today. Notable movers include KB Financial Group at USD 130.48 with a 1-day change of +1.94%, Apollo Global Management at USD 126.64 up 1.69%, and Blackstone Inc at USD 125.53 gaining 1.68% with 100% buy order activity on Pluang.
