The Fed just pulled the trigger again. Wednesday's move—a 0.25% rate cut—marks their third slash this year. What's driving it? A labor market that's clearly losing steam. Central bankers are betting this quarter-point nudge will breathe life back into hiring trends. Whether this signals a pivot or just another chapter in their balancing act remains to be seen. Risk assets are watching closely.
