The rate was progressively reduced through 2025, reaching 3.50%\u20133.75% by early 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Fed kept the federal funds rate unchanged at the 3.5%\u20133.75% target range for a third consecutive meeting in April 2026, in line with expectations. <a href=\"https:\/\/goldenpi.com\/blog\/bond-market-2\/global-bond-market-trends-affecting-indian-investors\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">goldenpi<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This pause in rate cuts reflects a more cautious stance from the Fed.
