Fed Chair Powell said rate cuts would not be appropriate until there is greater confidence that inflation is moving toward the 2% target. The central bank kept its overnight rate in the 5.25%-5.50% range.

Expected future rate cuts support a weaker dollar over time, which tends to lift dollar-priced commodities such as grains and oilseeds. The timing of cuts remains uncertain.
