Fed members kicked off two days of crucial interest rate talks on Tuesday, aiming to find a light between stubborn inflation and a turbulent financial market.

On the contrary, a minority predicts that the central bank will stop its hike cycle amid concerns about the banking sector, following the recent collapse of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) as an example. A 0.25% hike by the Fed would replicate the increase that emerged from its previous meeting.
